Hello Petr, >Do not use zero to denote an invalid file descriptor. > >First, zero is a valid value, although quite unlikely to be used for >anything except standard input. > >Second, open(2) returns a negative value on failure, so there are >already checks for a negative value in some places. > >The purpose of this patch is not to allow running in an evil environment >(with closed stdin), but to aid in debugging by using a consistent value >for uninitialized file descriptors which is also regarded as invalid by >the kernel. For example, attempts to close a negative FD will fail >(unlike an attempt to close FD 0). > >Signed-off-by: Petr Tesarik <ptesarik at suse.com> Good, thanks for your work, but could you fix more two points as below ?
