[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 39/45] mailbox: handle failed named mailbox channel request

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

 



From: morten petersen <morten_bp@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 25777e5784a7b417967460d4fcf9660d05a0c320 ]

Previously, if mbox_request_channel_byname was used with a name
which did not exist in the "mbox-names" property of a mailbox
client, the mailbox corresponding to the last entry in the
"mbox-names" list would be incorrectly selected.
With this patch, -EINVAL is returned if the named mailbox is
not found.
