Subject: [PATCH libibcm] Return errors from the kernel consistently
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2009 23:58:34 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091020055834.GA26350@obsidianresearch.com> (raw)

This fixes one subtle bug, where a return of 0 from the kernel will
result in a success report from the library, and fixes a terrible
API in the process. Use errno, or return the code, or both.
Not half and half..

It is easier to return errno than to fixup the cases that don't,
so lets stick with that.

Codes should have been be positive for alignment with POSIX, but
it is much too late for that..

librdmacm has the same basic flaw too.

What do you think Sean?
