For some error cases, no log message was created - hence apart from the return code there was no indication of failing execution. If a line load fails, don't abort but continue with the remaining file contents. The current pf.os file in this repository serves as proof-of-concept: Lines 700 and 701: Duplicates of lines 698 and 699 because 'W*' and 'W0' parse into the same data. Line 704: Duplicate of line 702 because apart from 'W*' and 'W0', only the first three fields on right-hand side are sent to the kernel. When loading, these dups are ignored (they would bounce if NLM_F_EXCL was given). Upon deletion, they cause ENOENT response from kernel. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@xxxxxx> --- Changes since v1: - Don't use ulog_err() when complaining about missing fingerprints argument, the use of strerror() with zero errno is misleading. - Don't print error on osf_load_line() failure when deleting and errno is ENOENT. Upon add, NLM_F_EXCL is not set so EEXIST is basically ignored, be equally error-tolerant upon deletion. --- utils/nfnl_osf.c | 15 ++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/utils/nfnl_osf.c b/utils/nfnl_osf.c index 922d90ac135b7..4183d66c22d16 100644 --- a/utils/nfnl_osf.c +++ b/utils/nfnl_osf.c @@ -392,7 +392,7 @@ static int osf_load_line(char *buffer, int len, int del) static int osf_load_entries(char *path, int del) { FILE *inf; - int err = 0; + int err = 0, lineno = 0; char buf[1024]; inf = fopen(path, "r"); @@ -402,7 +402,9 @@ static int osf_load_entries(char *path, int del) } while(fgets(buf, sizeof(buf), inf)) { - int len; + int len, rc; + + lineno++; if (buf[0] == '#' || buf[0] == '\n' || buf[0] == '\r') continue; @@ -414,9 +416,11 @@ static int osf_load_entries(char *path, int del) buf[len] = '\0'; - err = osf_load_line(buf, len, del); - if (err) - break; + rc = osf_load_line(buf, len, del); + if (rc && (!del || errno == ENOENT)) { + ulog_err("Failed to load line %d", lineno); + err = rc; + } memset(buf, 0, sizeof(buf)); } @@ -448,6 +452,7 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) if (!fingerprints) { err = -ENOENT; + ulog("Missing fingerprints file argument.\n"); goto err_out_exit; } -- 2.26.2
