Subject: [PATCH 0/2] tools/virtio: fix the build and the posix_memalign() checks
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 23:29:56 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261020032958.1930203-1-liam@infradead.org> (raw)
Working on other tools, I came across the fact that posix_memalign()'s
return is not the standard negative error. Scanning the git repo, I
came across the virtio issue with the return. Testing turned out the be
broke as well, so there's a patch to fix testing prior to fixing the
caller.
