[PATCH] media: cec: return -ENODEV instead of -ENXIO if unregistered

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

 



If the CEC device is unregistered, then an attempt to open
the device node should result in an -ENODEV error instead of
-ENXIO.

Document this as well in cec-func-open.rst.

This is consistent with the error code returned by other
file operations such as ioctl.
