Subject: [Patch v2] mm/migrate.c: also overwrite error when it is bigger than zero
Date: Sun, 19 Jan 2020 14:57:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200119065753.21694-1-richardw.yang@linux.intel.com> (raw)

If we get here after successfully adding page to list, err would be
1 to indicate the page is queued in the list.

Current code has two problems:

  * on success, 0 is not returned
  * on error, if add_page_for_migratioin() return 1, and the following err1
    from do_move_pages_to_node() is set, the err1 is not returned since err
    is 1

And these behaviors break the user interface.

Fixes: e0153fc2c760 ("mm: move_pages: return valid node id in status if the
page is already on the target node").
