Subject: [PATCH 4/4] [DCCP] ccid3: Divide by zero fix
Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 22:09:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11411645423461-git-send-email-acme@mandriva.com> (raw)

In rare circumstances 0 is returned by dccp_li_hist_calc_i_mean which leads to
a divide by zero in ccid3_hc_rx_packet_recv. Explicitly check for zero return
now. Update copyright notice at same time.

Found by Arnaldo.
