[PATCH 01/76] VFS: Make clone_mnt()/copy_tree()/collect_mounts() return errors

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

 



From: Valerie Aurora <vaurora@xxxxxxxxxx>

copy_tree() can theoretically fail in a case other than ENOMEM, but
always returns NULL which is interpreted by callers as -ENOMEM.
Convert to return an explicit error.  Convert clone_mnt() for
consistency and because union mounts will add new error cases.

Thanks to Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@xxxxxxx> for a bug fix.
