Subject: [Xenomai-core] [PATCH] posix: Fix error checks when copying user strings
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 10:24:56 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49C0BDE8.4050400@domain.hid> (raw)

Do not return -EFAULT when the passed string has zero-length. Instead,
return -EINVAL when trying to create objects with empty names.
