[PATCH 1/2] ext4: dont return EINVAL from GETFSUUID when reporting UUID length

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>

If userspace calls this ioctl with fsu_length (the length of the
fsuuid.fsu_uuid array) set to zero, ext4 copies the desired uuid length
out to userspace.  The kernel call returned a result from a valid input,
so the return value here should be zero, not EINVAL.

While we're at it, fix the copy_to_user call to make it clear that we're
only copying out fsu_len.
