[PATCH 3/6] Fix error handling of readdir() in virFileLoopDeviceOpen

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>

To correctly handle errors from readdir() you must set 'errno'
to zero before invoking it & check its value afterwards to
distinguish error from EOF.
