The function currently returns 0 and <0 for > + success and failure, respectively. This will change to 1 and 0 for true and > + false, respectively, to make use of the function more intuitive. It will introduce some subtle bugs in applications. We must clearly advertise this API change in the release notes. Acked-by: Thomas Monjalon <thomas@monjalon.net>
