Subject: [PATCH] lib: libfile: Do not ignore errors in close()
Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2015 17:09:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436746187-8652-1-git-send-email-asmirnov@kymetacorp.com> (raw)

From: Andrey Smirnov <andrew.smirnov@gmail.com>

Some character devices may perform meaningful operations in their
implementation of close() -- a good example would be socfpga.c which
checks if the FPGA was programmed succesfully in it's close() method
-- so ignoring return value of this call may cause false positives in
checking exit status for success.
