Subject: [PATCH 1/1] net: ethernet: qlogic: set error code on failure
Date: Sun, 4 Dec 2016 13:53:53 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480830833-5084-1-git-send-email-bianpan201603@163.com> (raw)
From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@163.com>
When calling dma_mapping_error(), the value of return variable rc is 0.
And when the call returns an unexpected value, rc is not set to a
negative errno. Thus, it will return 0 on the error path, and its
callers cannot detect the bug. This patch fixes the bug, assigning
"-ENOMEM" to err.
