[XEN PATCH v5] tools/lsevtchn: Use errno macro to handle hypercall error cases
Posted by Matthew Barnes 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Currently, lsevtchn aborts its event channel enumeration when it hits
an event channel that is owned by Xen.

lsevtchn does not distinguish between different hypercall errors, which
results in lsevtchn missing potential relevant event channels with
higher port numbers.

Use the errno macro to distinguish between hypercall errors, and
continue event channel enumeration if the hypercall error is not
critical to enumeration.

Changes in v5:
- Code style changes to switch statement

Changes in v4:
- Catch non-critical errors and fail on everything else, instead of
  catching few known critical errors and ignoring everything else
- Use 'perror' to describe miscellaneous critical errors
- Return appropriate error code from lsevtchn tool
- Tweak commit description

Sorry didn't pay attention here (and can likely be taken care of when
committing, unless other comments arise): Labels want to be indented
by at least one blank. See ./CODING_STYLE.
