Subject: [PATCH RESEND] tools-powerpc: Return false instead of -1
Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2016 09:55:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161109085504.10799-1-andrew.shadura@collabora.co.uk> (raw)
From: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com>
Returning a negative value for a boolean function seem to have the
undesired effect of returning true. require_paranoia_below() is a
boolean function, but the variable used to store the return value is an
integer, receiving -1 or 0. This patch convert rc to bool, replace -1
by false, and 0 by true.
This issue was found by the following Coccinelle semantic patch:
<smpl>
@@
identifier f, ret;
constant C;
typedef bool;
@@
bool f (...){
<+...
ret = -C;
...
* return ret;
...+>
}
</smpl>
