[PATCH v2 5/5] cxl/memdev: Don't overwrite the error from an earlier partition poison query
From: Richard Cheng
Date: Thu Jul 02 2026 - 05:33:37 EST
cxl_get_poison_by_memdev() queries Get Poison List per partition but
never checks the result inside the loop, so a later partition's success
overwrites an earlier partition's failure and the whole scan reports
success while that partition's poison went unlisted. Before the loop
conversion the PMEM query returned early on error. Stop the loop on any
error not already tolerated as a RAM -EFAULT.
Fixes: be5cbd084027 ("cxl: Kill enum cxl_decoder_mode")
