Both dht2m and m2dht arrays are initialized to -1 in the loop right after their declaration:

https://github.com/TokTok/c-toxcore/blob/66453439acf79a35eb46fe66a1c72595e7d0c9ca/toxcore/Messenger.c#L2701-L2720

(Note that break breaks just the inner loop, the outer loop runs in its entirety, fully initializing the arrays).

VAL macro is defined in https://github.com/TokTok/c-toxcore/blob/66453439acf79a35eb46fe66a1c72595e7d0c9ca/toxcore/ccompat.h, expands to

        int32_t m2dht[num_dhtfriends];
        int32_t dht2m[num_dhtfriends];

if you run gcc -E or clang -E on the code.
