[PATCH net] sctp: fix a success return may hide an error

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

 



Now in the end of sctp_outq_flush, sctp calls sctp_packet_transmit
in a loop. The return of current sctp_packet_transmit always covers
the prior one's. If the last call of sctp_packet_transmit return a
success, it may hide the error that returns from the prior call.

This patch is to fix this by keeping the old error until the new
error returns from sctp_packet_transmit. Did TAHI test against this
fix, no regression is found.
