[patch 54/67] PKT_SCHED: cls_basic: Use unsigned int when generating handle

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

 



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

------------------
From: David Miller <[email protected]>

gcc-4.1 and later take advantage of the fact that in the
C language certain types of overflow/underflow are undefined,
and this is completely legitimate.

Prevents filters from being added if the first generated
handle already exists.
