Subject: [PATCH] mtd:Fix issue where write_cached_data() fails but write() still returns success
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2020 11:15:11 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1584674111-101462-1-git-send-email-nixiaoming@huawei.com> (raw)

mtdblock_flush()
	-->write_cached_data()
		--->erase_write()
		     mtdblock: erase of region [0x40000, 0x20000] on "xxx" failed

Because mtdblock_flush() always returns 0,
even if write_cached_data() fails and data is not written to the device,
syscall_write() still returns success
