When virStorageBackendProbeTarget fails, it returns -1 or -2. The two uses below obviously intended to handle those cases differently, but due to a wrong comparison, they always treated a "real" (e.g., open) failure (-1) just like an ignorable "wrong file type" failure (-2). FYI, coverity reported that the "goto cleanup" statement was unreachable, which was true in each case, but hardly the real problem. >From c9ba79daf124afbab351741192bbaf7110a199dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyering@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2010 10:34:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] storage_backend_fs.c: do not ignore probe failure * src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c (virStorageBackendFileSystemRefresh): Correct two error-handling bugs. The documented intent is to ignore non-regular files, yet due to a comparison "< 0" (rather than "!= 0") all errors were handled that way. (vboxStorageVolDelete): Likewise. (vboxDomainDefineXML): Likewise. --- src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c b/src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c index 4fe40b3..fa72f9c 100644 --- a/src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c +++ b/src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ /* * storage_backend_fs.c: storage backend for FS and directory handling * - * Copyright (C) 2007-2009 Red Hat, Inc. + * Copyright (C) 2007-2010 Red Hat, Inc. * Copyright (C) 2007-2008 Daniel P.
