4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Vincent Bernat <vincent@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 999b8b88c6060adf7a9b7907740ae86ace65291e upstream.
Some use of those functions were providing unitialized values to those
functions. Notably, when reading 0 bytes from an empty file on a 9P
filesystem, the return code of read() was not 0.
Tested with this simple program:
#include <assert.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, const char **argv)
{
assert(argc == 2);
char buffer[256];
int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY);
assert(fd >= 0);
assert(read(fd, buffer, 0) == 0);
return 0;
}
