Do we really need the memset()? If “channel” is of length NAMEDATALEN, then it still results in a non-0 terminated key->channel; if channel is shorter than NAMEDATALEN, strlcpy will auto add a tailing ‘\0’. I think previous code should have ensured length of channel should be less than NAMEDATALEN.
For comment 6, the result is the same that I don’t think memset() is needed. However, my previous explanation of strlcpy() was wrong, which should apply to strncpy(). For strlcpy(), it already makes a termination ‘\0’.
And one more nit comment:

```
+ int allocated_listeners; /* Allocated size of array */
```
For “size” here, I guess you meant “length”, though “size” also works, but usually “size” means bytes occupied by an array and “length” means number of elements of an array. So, “length” would be clearer here.
