What's the difference between XFAIL/XPASS and regular FAIL/PASS (I don't see the former used in patchset either, only PASS/FAIL)? What's the purpose of EXIT_SKIP? I think overall these should be commented. Also, in the bigger picture, I'm guessing you have a reason for not recycling errno and inventing your own exit codes... How do you plan on using these? In addition I'm seeing things like: - exit(EXIT_FAILURE); + exit(EXIT_FAIL); which isn't a very good idea in general. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
