Because the failures here are not fatal and recording the first one may or may not make sense and it's so fragile as it completely implementation-dependent. > >> + } > >> + } > >> + return global_ret; > > > > So here, we actually will get stale data in case there are > 1 failures. > > Yes, indeed. But we will have an error message for each failure. Which is also problematic. PM calls may easily spam the logs and outshadow really important messages (like oopses). -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
