### Description **I did:** I have installed kamailio 5.2.4 in ubuntu system and configured kamailio script to connect with erlang node also it sends rpc request to erlang node and get response which I have printed in a logs. ... $erl_list(L) = "two"; $erl_list(L) = "one"; xlog("L_ALERT","Before RPC: $erl_list(args=>format)\n"); erl_rpc("erlang", "list_to_tuple", "$erl_list(args)", "$erl_xbuff(repl)"); xlogl("L_ALERT","type(reply): $erl_xbuff(repl=>type), format(repl): $erl_xbuff(repl=>format)\n"); ...

**Expected to happen:** Response should be get from erlang node against RPC request and it should be store in erl_xbuff. And it should be print logs like: ALERT: <script>: 501:type(reply): tuple, format(repl): {"one", "two"}

**Actually happened:** Response is getting properly. but the problem is to store data into xbuff so it print logs like: ALERT: <script>: 501:type(reply): <null>, format(repl): <null>

### Troubleshooting I have check with older version 4.3.0 and it works fine. getting this problem after 5.2.0 version So, I have compare 5.2.0 and 4.3.0 version code. I found one change in pv_xbuff.c file which is creating a problem when I revert the change then it works fine.

#### Reproduction It will be reproducible everytime. Just sends rpc request and get the value in xbuff. check xbuff value

#### Log Messages Problem logs: ``` ALERT: <script>: Before RPC: [["one", "two"]] WARNING: <core> [core/mem/q_malloc.c:480]: qm_free(): WARNING: free(0) called from erlang: pv_xbuff.c: xavp_decode(1209) ALERT: <script>: 501:type(reply): <null>, format(repl): <null> ``` logs after change: ``` ALERT: <script>: Before RPC: [["one", "two"]] WARNING: <core> [core/mem/q_malloc.c:480]: qm_free(): WARNING: free(0) called from erlang: pv_xbuff.c: xavp_decode(1209) ALERT: <script>: 501:type(reply): tuple, format(repl): {"one", "two"} ```
