Subject: [patch 1/3] vfio-mdev: return -EFAULT if copy_to_user() fails
Date: Sat, 07 Jan 2017 06:27:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170107062749.GA26959@elgon.mountain> (raw)
The copy_to_user() function returns the number of bytes which it wasn't
able to copy but we want to return a negative error code.
Fixes: 9d1a546c53b4 ("docs: Sample driver to demonstrate how to use Mediated device framework.")
