Subject: [PATCH] vfs: return EINVAL instead of ENOENT when missing source
Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2019 13:00:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190318050022.7833-1-jencce.kernel@gmail.com> (raw)

mount(2) with a NULL source device would return ENOENT instead of EINVAL
after this commit:

commit f3a09c92018a91ad0981146a4ac59414f814d801
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date:   Sun Dec 23 18:55:56 2018 -0500

    introduce fs_context methods

Change the return value to be compatible with the old behaviour.

This was caught by LTP mount02[1]. This testcase is calling mount(2) with a
NULL device name and expecting EINVAL to PASS but now we are getting ENOENT.
