Hallyn" , selinux@tycho.nsa.gov Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 18:01:35 -0700 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" Mime-Version: 1.0 Cc: linux-security-module@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org List-Id: "Security-Enhanced Linux \(SELinux\) mailing list" List-Post: List-Help: Return a negative error value like the rest of the entries in this function. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches --- Maybe this should be stable, it goes back to commit b77a493b1dc8 ("SELinux: standardize return code handling in selinuxfs.c") back in Nov 2010, but it's guarded by a #ifdef CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP so it probably doesn't matter much. security/selinux/selinuxfs.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/security/selinux/selinuxfs.c b/security/selinux/selinuxfs.c index 1684bcc..5fde343 100644 --- a/security/selinux/selinuxfs.c +++ b/security/selinux/selinuxfs.c @@ -152,7 +152,7 @@ static ssize_t sel_write_enforce(struct file *file, const char __user *buf, goto out; /* No partial writes. */ - length = EINVAL; + length = -EINVAL; if (*ppos != 0) goto out;
