Subject: [PATCH] xfs: xfs_iozero can return positive errno
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2015 22:38:41 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1429187921-13903-1-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

It was missed when we converted everything in XFs to use negative error
numbers, so fix it now. Bug introduced in 3.17 by commit 2451337 ("xfs: global
error sign conversion"), and should go back to stable kernels.

Thanks to Brian Foster for noticing it.

cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.17, 3.18, 3.19, 4.0
