[Stable-10.0.9 06/44] contrib/plugins/hotblocks: Fix off by one error in iteration of sorted blocks
Posted by Michael Tokarev 3 weeks, 6 days ago
From: Alex Bradbury <asb@igalia.com>

The logic to iterate over the hottest blocks will never reach the last
item in the list, as it checks `it->next != NULL` before entering the
loop. It's hard to trigger this off-by-one error with the default
limit=20, but it is a bug and is problematic if that default is changed
to something larger.
