Subject: [PATCH] vfio-pci: Fix buffer overfill
Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2013 20:27:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130115032702.6680.60037.stgit@bling.home> (raw)
A read from a range hidden from the user (ex. MSI-X vector table)
attempts to fill the user buffer up to the end of the excluded range
instead of up to the requested count. Fix it.
