Re: [PATCH v3 2/4] selftests: cgroup: return the errno of write() in cg_write() on failure

On Thu, Apr 7, 2022 at 9:57 PM Yosry Ahmed yosryahmed@google.com wrote:

Currently, cg_write() returns 0 on success and -1 on failure. Modify it to return the errno of write() syscall when write() fails.

I have changed this in v4 to a cleaner implementation that either returns 0 on success or -errno on failure. I also made sure to check that the full buffer was being written, and updated cg_read() as well for the interface to be consistent.

Will send out once the discussion on patch 1 in v3 reaches a consensus.
