Subject: [PATCH] arch: mips: sibyte: Return -EFAULT if copy_to_user() fails
Date: Mon,  1 Mar 2021 14:33:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1614580437-19660-1-git-send-email-wangqing@vivo.com> (raw)

The copy_to_user() function returns the number of bytes remaining to be
copied, but we want to return -EFAULT if the copy doesn't complete.
