[PATCH v12 3/6] mm/hwpoison: return -EFAULT when copy fail in copy_mc_[user]_highpage()

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

 



If hardware errors are encountered during page copying, returning the bytes
not copied is not meaningful, and the caller cannot do any processing on
the remaining data. Returning -EFAULT is more reasonable, which represents
a hardware error encountered during the copying.
