Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] dmg: fix binary search
Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2018 21:58:03 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181221135803.9583-1-npes87184@gmail.com> (raw)

There is a possible hang in original binary searsh implemtation. That is
if chunk1 = 4, chunk2 = 5, chunk3 = 4, and we go else case.

The chunk1 will be still 4, and so on.
