Only if size_t is a larger type than int (could be on x86-64 and alpha architectures). Other than that, this comparison would work. Which does not mean that this does not warrant fixing, but it is not necessarily the cause of this problem.
1. Yes this is not necessarily the cause.. I agree. 2. size_t as I know is unsigned and ssize_t is the signed version of size_t.. so to compare with -1 we want ssize_t. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
