DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

db2HistoryGetEntry has a field pioHistData which takes in a 
struct of db2HistoryData type.  If an application reuses the 
same db2HistoryData type for consecutive calls to 
db2HistoryGetEntry, then the API might produce wrong results, or 
even trap. 
 
The problem has to do with a field inside the db2HistoryData 
called poEventSQLCA.  If this field is unset, then internally 
the db2HistoryGetEntry API will set it up with a dummy for the 
API to process.  At the end of the API it will free the memory 
of the dummy but not nullify the pointer on the structure.  This 
causes problem to subsequent calls to db2HistoryGetEntry with 
the same instance of db2HistoryData struct as the pointer is 
non-NULL and the API tries to dereference it. 
 
This problem only happens when using a v97 client to talk to a 
server in v97 or above.

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              * 
* memset the db2HistoryData struct before passing it to        * 
* db2HistoryGetEntry.                                          * 
****************************************************************

The fix is to memset the db2HistoryData struct every time before 
calling db2HistoryGetEntry.
