[patch 149/159] mm/sparse: fix a bad comparison

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

 



From: Qian Cai <cai@xxxxxx>
Subject: mm/sparse: fix a bad comparison

next_present_section_nr() could only return an unsigned number -1, so just
check it specifically where compilers will convert -1 to unsigned if
needed.

mm/sparse.c: In function 'sparse_init_nid':
mm/sparse.c:200:20: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is
always true [-Wtype-limits]
       ((section_nr >= 0) &&    \
                    ^~
mm/sparse.c:478:2: note: in expansion of macro
'for_each_present_section_nr'
  for_each_present_section_nr(pnum_begin, pnum) {
