[PATCH v3 1/3] Fix userfaultfd_api to return EINVAL as expected

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

 



Currently if we request a feature that is not set in the Kernel
config we fail silently and return all the available features. However,
the man page indicates we should return an EINVAL.

We need to fix this issue since we can end up with a Kernel warning
should a program request the feature UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED on
a kernel with the config not set with this feature.
