linux-toradex.git/lib/test_firmware.c, branch v4.4.106 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules test: firmware_class: report errors properly on failure 2017-11-15T16:13:13+00:00 Brian Norris computersforpeace@gmail.com 2015-12-09T22:50:25+00:00 c08f3a82f66f6ae09a96ca0f2054da0a6d77f84d commit 47e0bbb7fa985a0f1b5794a8653fae4f8f49de77 upstream. request_firmware() failures currently won't get reported at all (the error code is discarded).

commit 47e0bbb7fa985a0f1b5794a8653fae4f8f49de77 upstream.

request_firmware() failures currently won't get reported at all (the
error code is discarded). What's more, we get confusing messages, like:

    # echo -n notafile > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_firmware/trigger_request
    [ 8280.311856] test_firmware: loading 'notafile'
    [ 8280.317042] test_firmware: load of 'notafile' failed: -2
    [ 8280.322445] test_firmware: loaded: 0
    # echo $?
    0

Report the failures via write() errors, and don't say we "loaded"
anything.
