Subject: [PATCH 1/4]: Propagate error code from devpts_pty_new
Date: Sat, 12 Apr 2008 10:32:02 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080412173202.GA19449@us.ibm.com> (raw)

Subject: [PATCH 1/4]: Propagate error code from devpts_pty_new

Have ptmx_open() propagate any error code returned by devpts_pty_new()
(which returns either 0 or -ENOMEM anyway).
