None of the comments below are a reason against mainline inclusion, imo. They should get handled, but whether that happens before or after a merge doesn't really matter.

It seems to be. > + if (squashfs_new_inode(s, i, inodeb) == 0) > + goto failed_read; Most linux functions return 0 on success and -ESOMETHING on error. You return 0 on error and 1 on success. That makes it likely for someone else to do something like err = squashfs_foo(bar); if (err) goto fail; Oops. Jörn -- Measure.
