But > presumably it *does* work, so why? It's probably because kstrtouint() returns just 0 on success. That's what functions in the call chain of kstrtouint() -> kstrtoull() -> _kstrtoull() -> _parse_integer() are actually doing. _parse_integer() actually returns rv, i.e. number of characters parsed. But after that, if there's no error, _kstrtoull() simply returns 0. > Also, we should probably return `rc' here if it's negative, to > propagate the error which kstrtouint() detected. That's a minor > non-back-compatible change but it shouldn't matter. Okay, I also think that we should return rc. I'll do it. > otoh, kstrtouint() likes to return -ERANGE when things go wrong. > ERANGE means "Math result not representable", which is a nonsenscal > error code in this context. Sigh, why do people keep doing this. Hmm, good to know.
