Most error returns are currently handled via an unsigned integer "ret". When setting a negative error value to "ret", the value actually becomes a large positive value, because "ret" is unsigned. Later on, the "ret" value is returned. But as ssize_t is a 64-bit signed number, the error return value stays a large positive integer instead of a negative integer. This can cause an error value to be interpreted as the read size, which can cause a buffer overread for applications relying on the returned size.
