[PATCH 3.16 148/410] staging: lustre: libcfs: Prevent harmless read underflow

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

 



3.16.57-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 134aecbc25fd77645baaea5467b2a7ed8e9d1ea7 upstream.

Because this is a post-op instead of a pre-op, then it means we check
if knl_buffer[-1] is a space.  It doesn't really hurt anything, but
it causes a static checker warning so let's fix it.

Fixes: d7e09d0397e8 ("staging: add Lustre file system client support")
