Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 24/26] xen/manage: don't complain about an empty value in control/sysrq node
Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2018 00:40:43 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181001004026.147201-24-alexander.levin@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181001004026.147201-1-alexander.levin@microsoft.com>

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 87dffe86d406bee8782cac2db035acb9a28620a7 ]

When guest receives a sysrq request from the host it acknowledges it by
writing '\0' to control/sysrq xenstore node. This, however, make xenstore
watch fire again but xenbus_scanf() fails to parse empty value with "%c"
format string:

 sysrq: SysRq : Emergency Sync
 Emergency Sync complete
 xen:manage: Error -34 reading sysrq code in control/sysrq

Ignore -ERANGE the same way we already ignore -ENOENT, empty value in
control/sysrq is totally legal.
