Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] xen/privcmd: return -ENOTTY for unimplemented IOCTLs
Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 17:03:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1487005404-3183-2-git-send-email-paul.durrant@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1487005404-3183-1-git-send-email-paul.durrant@citrix.com>

The code sets the default return code to -ENOSYS but then overrides this
to -EINVAL in the switch() statement's default case, which is clearly
silly.

This patch removes the override and sets the default return code to
-ENOTTY, which is the conventional return for an unimplemented ioctl.

v2:
- Use -ENOTTY rather than -ENOSYS
