Subject: [PATCH 1/3] net/ifup.c: don't fail silently
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2014 12:56:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201404231256.53884.jbe@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140423103042.GR5858@pengutronix.de>

Since commit a162dfe50345d3461010759f8a0e79f7e388c140 the ifup command is
implemented in C and runs up to two external scripts.
If one of these scripts return with an error code, the command terminates
silently. This can confuse a user because there is no hint about the reason
why it fails. Add error messages to avoid this case.
