From 2d3bb25209c1f9a27ea9535c7fd2f6729a5e7db1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "J. Bruce Fields" Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 04:04:40 -0700 Subject: knfsd: nfsd: make all exp_finding functions return -errno's on err Currently exp_find(), exp_get_by_name(), and friends, return an export on success, and on failure return: errors -EAGAIN (drop this request pending an upcall) or -ETIMEDOUT (an upcall has timed out), or return NULL, which can mean either that there was a memory allocation failure, or that an export was not found, or that a passed-in export lacks an auth_domain. Many callers seem to assume that NULL means that an export was not found, which may lead to bugs in the case of a memory allocation failure. Modify these functions to distinguish between the two NULL cases by returning either -ENOENT or -ENOMEM. They now never return NULL. We get to simplify some code in the process. We return -ENOENT in the case of a missing auth_domain. This case should probably be removed (or converted to a bug) after confirming that it can never happen. Signed-off-by: "J.
