When an underlying ioctl(2) handler returns an error, our ioctl(2) interface considers that it hits a fatal error, and will not copyout the request structure back for _IOW and _IOWR ioctls, keeping them untouched. The previous implementation of the SIOCGIFDESCR ioctl intends to feed the buffer length back to userland. However, if we return an error, the feedback would be defeated and ifconfig(8) would trap into an infinite loop. This commit changes SIOCGIFDESCR to set buffer field to NULL to indicate the previous ENAMETOOLONG case. Reported by: bschmidt |
