Subject: [patch 1/3] vfio: signedness bug in vfio_config_do_rw()
Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2012 09:44:25 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120628064425.GA11107@elgon.mountain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1340686552.1207.128.camel@bling.home>

The "count" variable is unsigned here so the test for errors doesn't
work.
