[PATCH] rtlwifi: fix error codes in rtl_debugfs_set_write_h2c()

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

 



If the copy_from_user() fails or the user gives invalid date then the
correct thing to do is to return a negative error code.  (Currently it
returns success).

I made a copy additional related cleanups:
1) There is no need to check "buffer" for NULL.  That's handled by
copy_from_user().
2) The "h2c_len" variable cannot be negative because it is unsigned
and because sscanf() does not return negative error codes.
