Subject: [linux-lvm] lvm_proc_get_info()
Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 20:37:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <37026B61.F8064BFA@msede.com> (raw)
There is a minor problem in lvm.c / lvm_proc_get_info()
lvm_proc_get_info() returns -1 on EOF which results in a bogus EPERM
returned to user mode. Try a cat /proc/lvm to see the effect.
Returning 0 should indicate the EOF condition.
Trivial patch against 0.6 is below. Obviously this also needs to
be applied against linux/drivers/block/lvm.c
