Subject: [PATCH 2/2] MPILIB: Deobfuscate mpi_cmp
Date: Sat, 6 Dec 2014 01:00:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1417824042-539-2-git-send-email-linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1417824042-539-1-git-send-email-linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>
The condition preceding 'return 1;' makes my head hurt. At this point,
we know that u and v have the same sign; if they are negative, they
compare opposite to how their absolute values compare (which
mpihelp_cmp found for us), otherwise cmp itself is the
answer. Negating cmp is ok since mpihelp_cmp returns {-1,0,1};
-INT_MIN==INT_MIN won't bite us.
