This adds 7 combinations of input values for memcmp() using signed and unsigned bytes, which will trigger on the original code before Rasmus' fix. This is mostly aimed at helping backporters verify their work, and showing how tests for corner cases can be added to the selftests suite. Before the fix it reports: 12 memcmp_20_20 = 0 [OK] 13 memcmp_20_60 = -64 [OK] 14 memcmp_60_20 = 64 [OK] 15 memcmp_20_e0 = 64 [FAIL] 16 memcmp_e0_20 = -64 [FAIL] 17 memcmp_80_e0 = -96 [OK] 18 memcmp_e0_80 = 96 [OK] And after: 12 memcmp_20_20 = 0 [OK] 13 memcmp_20_60 = -64 [OK] 14 memcmp_60_20 = 64 [OK] 15 memcmp_20_e0 = -192 [OK] 16 memcmp_e0_20 = 192 [OK] 17 memcmp_80_e0 = -96 [OK] 18 memcmp_e0_80 = 96 [OK] Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
