Subject: [PATCH dwarves 3/9] dwarf_loader: Refactor initial ret -1 to be macro PARM_DEFAULT_FAIL
Date: Thu,  5 Mar 2026 14:55:11 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260305225511.1153597-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260305225455.1151066-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>

Later on, More macro return values will be implemented to make
code easier to understand.
