[Qemu-devel] [patch] 64 bit truncation in code_gen_buffer_size calculation

[Jes Sorensen]

Hi,

This one is pretty obvious, don't truncate the result of
code_gen_buffer_size calculation to int when the target is an unsigned
long. Gives funny results when trying to boot something with a lot of
memory on a 64 bit system.

Cheers,
Jes



Don't truncate code_gen_buffer_size calculation to int, as it will give
unpredicted results on 64 bit systems when booting large guests.
