Hello, thanks for review! I see. I think i'll handle such partial sends (ret != skb_len) as error, as it is the only thing to do - we remove 'skb_len' from user's buffer, but 'send_pkt()' returns another value, so it will be strange for me to continue this tx loop as everything is ok. Something like this: + + if (ret < 0) + break; + + if (ret != skb_len) { + ret = -EFAULT;//or may be -EIO + break; + } > >> + } while (rest_len); >> >> - return t_ops->send_pkt(skb); >> + /* Don't call this function with zero as argument: >> + * it tries to acquire spinlock and such argument >> + * makes this call useless. > > Good point, can we do the same also for virtio_transport_get_credit()? > (Maybe in a separate patch) > > I'm thinking if may be better to do it directly inside the functions, > but I don't have a strong opinion on that since we only call them here. > I think in this patch i can call 'virtio_transport_put_credit()' without if, but i'll prepare separate patch which adds zero argument check to this function. As i see, the only function suitable for such 'if' condition is 'virtio_transport_put_credit()'. Anyway - for future use this check won't be bad.
