This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mei: fix return value on disconnection to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 2d4d5481e2d6f93b25fcfb13a9f20bbfbf54266a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2016 00:25:31 +0300 Subject: mei: fix return value on disconnection Correct errno on client disconnection is -ENODEV not -EBUSY Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> #4.3+ Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/misc/mei/amthif.c | 2 +- drivers/misc/mei/bus.c | 2 +- drivers/misc/mei/main.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/misc/mei/amthif.c b/drivers/misc/mei/amthif.c index 14b454143c81..3cf54ca051ea 100644 --- a/drivers/misc/mei/amthif.c +++ b/drivers/misc/mei/amthif.c @@ -132,7 +132,7 @@ int mei_amthif_read(struct mei_device *dev, struct file *file, return -ERESTARTSYS; if (!mei_cl_is_connected(cl)) { - rets = -EBUSY; + rets = -ENODEV; goto out; } diff --git a/drivers/misc/mei/bus.c b/drivers/misc/mei/bus.c index 63411ddfb83d..9c404dc8eada 100644 --- a/drivers/misc/mei/bus.c +++ b/drivers/misc/mei/bus.c @@ -143,7 +143,7 @@ ssize_t __mei_cl_recv(struct mei_cl *cl, u8 *buf, size_t length) mutex_lock(&bus->device_lock); if (!mei_cl_is_connected(cl)) { - rets = -EBUSY; + rets = -ENODEV; goto out; } } diff --git a/drivers/misc/mei/main.c b/drivers/misc/mei/main.c index 3326bde7fba1..d62e89c80beb 100644 --- a/drivers/misc/mei/main.c +++ b/drivers/misc/mei/main.c @@ -203,7 +203,7 @@ static ssize_t mei_read(struct file *file, char __user *ubuf, mutex_lock(&dev->device_lock); if (!mei_cl_is_connected(cl)) { - rets = -EBUSY; + rets = -ENODEV; goto out; } } -- 2.9.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
