My static checker says that "group" is a user controlled number that can be negative leading to an array underflow. I have looked at it, and I'm not an expert enough in lustre to say for sure if it is really a bug. Anyway, it's simple enough to make the variable unsigned which pleases the static checker and makes it easier to audit.

Yes, but for consistency, all 4 functions should be changed. Regards, Frank. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
