Subject: [PATCH] xfs: fix xfs_error_get_cfg for negative errnos
Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2016 14:32:17 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9810c6bf-9fd7-bf41-13ab-a96bec861457@redhat.com> (raw)

xfs_error_get_cfg() is called with bp->b_error as an arg,
which is negative, so the switch statement won't ever find
any matches.

This results in only the default error handler having
any effect, as EIO/ENOSPC/ENODEV get ignored due to the
wrong sign.

It seems simplest to always flip the error sign to positive,
so that we can handle either negative errors in bp->b_error,
or possibly a positive errno via something like
xfs_error_get_cfg(EIO) - this future-proofs the function.

I'm still chasing down some odd behaviors in the error handling
patches but this seems worth sending now :)
