RE: [PATCH 2/2] Fix one warning

Thanks for sharing the background. For [0], you mentioned that get_perms may return -1 in some cases for the group, can you help indicate which case it is?

Since the drmSetServerInfo is seldom used, maybe we can just do the 'int' cast at this moment. I will send v2 for this.

Regards,
Jammy

I don't think this change is correct. get_perms can return errors as negative values. I found that xserver does, see [0] for my take on fixing this, as well as Emil's response [1].

I think changing the condition to:
((int)serv_group >= 0)

should be ok(I don't think there are systems with GID_MAX greater than 2^31-1), but I never bothered sending v2.
