Subject: [PATCH 4.14 15/23] vhost: correctly check the return value of translate_desc() in log_used()
Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2019 15:35:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190221125247.454208547@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190221125246.162644302@linuxfoundation.org>

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 816db7663565cd23f74ed3d5c9240522e3fb0dda ]

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.

Fixes: cc5e71075947 ("vhost: log dirty page correctly")
