Subject: [PATCH 1/1] xen-netfront: do not cast grant table reference to signed short
Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2016 13:38:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1477892309-7150-1-git-send-email-dongli.zhang@oracle.com> (raw)

While grant reference is of type uint32_t, xen-netfront erroneously casts
it to signed short in BUG_ON().

This would lead to the xen domU panic during boot-up or migration when it
is attached with lots of paravirtual devices.
