Subject: [PATCH] Improve error handling in filesystem df
Date: Sun, 19 Dec 2010 17:29:41 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1292797781-3877-1-git-send-email-bgamari.foss@gmail.com> (raw)

The return values of ioctl weren't being printed to stderr on failure,
causing the command to silently fail, resulting in a very confused
user.
