Subject: [PATCH v1 0/2] Input: evdev/uinput errno alignment
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 12:21:54 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831152156.166514-1-ivanrwcm25@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
Two small fixes so ioctl failures match what helpers and uapi docs
already document.
Patch 1 propagates the return value of input_ff_effect_from_user()
from EVIOCSFF instead of always mapping failures to -EFAULT (wrong
size becomes -EINVAL).
Patch 2 returns -EINVAL for UI_ABS_SETUP when the axis code is out of
range (was -ERANGE) and rejects ABS_MT_SLOT with a non-zero minimum.
Base: v7.3-rc1
Tested: built bzImage with CONFIG_INPUT_UINPUT=y and CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y;
QEMU initramfs smoke:
- UI_ABS_SETUP with code > ABS_MAX → EINVAL
- UI_ABS_SETUP ABS_MT_SLOT with min != 0 → EINVAL
- EVIOCSFF with wrong size → EINVAL
Thanks,
Iván
