Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mailbox: Make mbox_send_message() return error code when tx fails
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2025 08:05:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250618080514.987118-1-joonwonkang@google.com> (raw)

When the mailbox controller failed transmitting message, the error code
was only passed to the client's tx done handler and not to
mbox_send_message(). For this reason, the function could return a false
success. This commit resolves the issue by introducing the tx status and
checking it before mbox_send_message() returns.
