[PATCH] Syslets - Fix cachemiss_thread return value

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



cachemiss_thread should explicitly return 0 or error instead of
task_ret_reg(current) (which is -ENOSYS anyway) because
async_thread_helper is careful to put the return value in eax anyway.

On x86_64, it looks like async_child_rip is similarly careful.
