[PATCH] tap: fix net_init_tap() return code
Posted by Steve Sistare 1 year, 1 month ago
When net_init_tap() succeeds for a multi-queue device, it returns a
non-zero ret=1 code to its caller, because of this code where ret becomes
1 when g_unix_set_fd_nonblocking succeeds.  Luckily, the only current call
site checks for negative, rather than non-zero.

    ret = g_unix_set_fd_nonblocking(fd, true, NULL);
    if (!ret) {
        ...
        goto free_fail;

Also, if g_unix_set_fd_nonblocking fails (though unlikely), ret=0 is returned,
and the caller will use a broken interface.

Indeed g_unix_set_fd_nonblocking() returns TRUE on success.

We should return -1 from free_fail, not trying to propagate 'ret':

Thanks for the review.  I will add your "return -1" changes if Jason agrees.

Note that the "free_fail" label is kind of ambiguous. It is used even if 
we succeed if I was not wrong.

Thanks

Yes, good catch.  We must return 0 from free_fail on success.
I could delete all uses of ret, test errp in free_fail, and return either -1 or 0.
Or, you could accept my initial small patch.

What do you prefer?
