From 838d14520267769648fb2fc2a637107a1d102590 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Olsa Date: Thu, 28 Nov 2013 11:30:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Fine tune readn function Added a 'left' variable to make the flow clearer, and added a debug check for the return value - returning 'n' is more obvious. Added small comment for readn.
