Subject: [PATCH] dfu: Report error codes
Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2026 17:22:11 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260106222212.744823-1-sean.anderson@linux.dev> (raw)
A lot of things can go wrong while parsing dfu_alt_info. Make sure to
pass the real error codes all the way up instead of replacing them with
an unhelpful -1.
