The patch titled net/sunrpc/svcsock.c: fix a check has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is net-sunrpc-svcsockc-fix-a-check.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: net/sunrpc/svcsock.c: fix a check From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@xxxxxxxxx> The return value of kernel_recvmsg() should be assigned to "err", not compared with the random value of a never initialized "err" (and the "< 0" check wrongly always returned false since == comparisons never have a result < 0). Spotted by the Coverity checker.
