[PATCH] rfkill: return ENOTTY on invalid ioctl

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

 



For unknown ioctls the correct error is
ENOTTY "Inappropriate ioctl for device".

ENOSYS as returned before should only be used to indicate that a syscall
is not available at all.
