Subject: checking write_cached_data return status inside _release and _flush?
Date: Fri, 07 Apr 2006 20:03:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4436A961.7050209@libero.it> (raw)
hi!
i experienced some corruption of data on flash memories i am using, and
discovered that this is related to these functions in mtdblock.c:
static int mtdblock_release(struct mtd_blktrans_dev *mbd)
static int mtdblock_flush(struct mtd_blktrans_dev *dev)
not checking the return value of the function:
write_cached_data(mtdblk)
i fixed that by checking the return value inside a while cycle but is
there any particular reason the original code is written that way?
Thank you.
