Description

From bruen...@google.com on May 04, 2011 14:12:17

today I'm breaking down the fields of ioctl input buffers but not output. for output the passed-in size may not all be written to. it may be a struct w/ only some fields filled in.

Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/drmemory/issues/detail?id=378
