[PATCH] VMCI: Fix process-to-process DRGAMs.

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

 



When sending between processes, we always schedule a work item.  Our work info
struct has the message embedded in the middle, which means that we end up
overwriting subsequent fields when we copy the (variable-length) message into
it.  Move it to the end of the struct.
