- in some cases if zlib-ng is used as the gzip library for Darshan, it will indicate that the correct number of bytes were decompressed, but will also modify some bytes in the buffer beyond that point. In the Darshan this specifically can produce a corrupted mount table by appending erroneous characters onto the string data.
