The following commit has been merged into the locking/urgent branch of tip: Commit-ID: 921c7ebd1337d1a46783d7e15a850e12aed2eaa0 Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/921c7ebd1337d1a46783d7e15a850e12aed2eaa0 Author: Mateusz Nosek <mateusznosek0@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Sun, 27 Sep 2020 02:08:58 +02:00 Committer: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Wed, 28 Oct 2020 15:48:51 +01:00 futex: Fix incorrect should_fail_futex() handling If should_futex_fail() returns true in futex_wake_pi(), then the 'ret' variable is set to -EFAULT and then immediately overwritten. So the failure injection is non-functional. Fix it by actually leaving the function and returning -EFAULT. The Fixes tag is kinda blury because the initial commit which introduced failure injection was already sloppy, but the below mentioned commit broke it completely.
