[PATCH nft 1/2] Use abort() in case of netlink_abi_error

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

 



Library functions should not use exit(), application that uses the
library may contain error handling path, that cannot be executed if
library functions calls exit(). For truly fatal errors, using abort() is
more acceptable than exit().
