[patch 10/26] Fix error returns in sys_socketpair()

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

 



2.6.22-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: David Miller <[email protected]>

patch bf3c23d171e35e6e168074a1514b0acd59cfd81a in mainline.

[NET]: Fix error reporting in sys_socketpair().

If either of the two sock_alloc_fd() calls fail, we
forget to update 'err' and thus we'll erroneously
return zero in these cases.

Based upon a report and patch from Rich Paul, and
commentary from Chuck Ebbert.
