Subject: Re: [PATCH] MdePkg/BaseMemoryLibOptDxe: check for zero length in ZeroMem ()
Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2016 17:38:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <A3EBA156-389D-4D09-A9C0-8F3CC9D50582@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1478194274-16524-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>

Is it worth modifying the assert after to no longer check length being garter than 0?
