[RFC PATCH 1/4] Fix an overflow bug with address comparison

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The variables mstart and mend are assigned the values of
mem_region[i].start and mem_region[i].end which are of the type
unsigned long long. Ensure that mstart and mend are of the same data
type to prevent address overflow.
