Subject: [patch] media/radio: fix copy_to_user to user handling
Date: Fri, 04 Jun 2010 10:34:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100604103440.GB5483@bicker> (raw)
copy_to/from_user() returns the number of bytes remaining to be copied
but the code here was testing for negative returns. I modified it to
return -EFAULT. These functions are called from si4713_s_ext_ctrls() and
that only tests for negative error codes.
