From: David S. Miller Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2007 04:54:02 +0000 (-0700) Subject: [NET]: Fix error reporting in sys_socketpair(). X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24-rc2~79^2~6 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bf3c23d171e35e6e168074a1514b0acd59cfd81a;p=linux-2.6 [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. Signed-off-by: David S.
