[ 27/48] iovec: make sure the caller actually wants anything in

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sun Nov 16 2014 - 17:01:27 EST


2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
memcpy_fromiovecend

From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 06ebb06d49486676272a3c030bfeef4bd969a8e6 ]

Check for cases when the caller requests 0 bytes instead of running off
and dereferencing potentially invalid iovecs.
