What is errno referring to over here? There are a few things happening in alloc_pkey(). I guess it would show the latest error that happened. Does errno need to be set to 0 before the call?

Also, would it be useful to print the return value (new_pkey) from alloc_pkey() here?

  				" shadow: 0x%016llx\n",
-				__func__, __LINE__, err, __read_pkey_reg(),
+				__func__, __LINE__, errno, __read_pkey_reg(),
  				shadow_pkey_reg);
  		read_pkey_reg(); /* for shadow checking */
  		dprintf2("%s() errno: %d ENOSPC: %d\n", __func__, errno, ENOSPC);
