[patch] fbmem: return -EFAULT on copy_to_user() failure

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

 



copy_to_user() returns the number of bytes remaining to be copied.
put_user() returns -EFAULT on error.

This function ORs a bunch of stuff together and returns jumbled non-zero
values on error.  It should return -EFAULT.
