From 127cd4e23323f23ca2fe39abb8310e312af2f88f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2018 12:33:34 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] vmci: type promotion bug in qp_host_get_user_memory() [ Upstream commit 7fb2fd4e25fc1fb10dcb30b5519de257cfeae84c ] The problem is that if get_user_pages_fast() fails and returns a negative error code, it gets type promoted to a high positive value and treated as a success.
