Subject: [PATCH] xfs: remove incorrect error negation in attr_multi ioctl
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2015 10:15:06 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1421766906-55011-1-git-send-email-bfoster@redhat.com> (raw)
xfs_compat_attrmulti_by_handle() calls memdup_user() which returns a
negative error code. The error code is negated by the caller and thus
incorrectly converted to a positive error code.
Remove the error negation such that the negative error is passed
correctly back up to userspace.
