Subject: [PATCH 1/1] xen: xenbus: set error code on failure
Date: Sat,  3 Dec 2016 18:49:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480762166-4883-1-git-send-email-bianpan2016@163.com> (raw)

In function xenstored_local_init(), the value of return variable err
should be negative on errors. But the value of err keeps 0 even if the 
call to get_zeroed_page() returns a NULL pointer. This patch assigns 
"-ENOMEM" to err on the error branch.
