Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] xl: convert exit codes to EXIT_[SUCCESS|FAILURE]
Date: Sat, 24 Oct 2015 11:01:32 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1445664696-14258-2-git-send-email-write.harmandeep@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1445664696-14258-1-git-send-email-write.harmandeep@gmail.com>

turning main function xl exit codes towards using the
EXIT_[SUCCESS|FAILURE] macros, instead of instead of arbitrary numbers
or libxl return codes.

also includes a document comment in xl.h stating xl process should
always return EXIT_FOO and main_* can be treated as main() as if
they are returning a process exit status and not a function return
value)
