[PATCH net V2] vhost: correctly check the return value of translate_desc() in log_used()

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

 



When fail, translate_desc() returns negative value, otherwise the
number of iovs. So we should fail when the return value is negative
instead of a blindly check against zero.
