--- Comment #23 from Julian Seward <jsew...@acm.org> --- (In reply to Tom Hughes from comment #22) > So if thinks the open was a success with a negative file descriptor returned? Ah, maybe it's trying to tell us something :-) I vaguely remember reading that this new syscall convention denotes failure by returning a value between -1 and -4096 [bizarrely, like x86-32 in the earliest days of Linux]. If that's true, it would imply that the call was passed to the kernel using the new convention, it failed, but we mistakenly believe, in the post-syscall handling, that it succeeded. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
