Subject: [lm-sensors] [Patch] libsensors: Introduce error string - Unknown
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 09:09:45 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090129090945.GB4410@ubuntu> (raw)


Hello,

sensors_error() returns NULL if errnum is not valid. Returning
"Unknown error" in this case, makes output clearer than:

foo: (null)

and prevents error output/logging from segmentation faults.

What do you think?

Andre
