Make a local variable "int error" here.

The error code is an int and only 32bits.
Understood, will change that!

The handles are also only 32bits!
Ah, that's my mistake. Was thrown off by the __u64 in the struct definition but it is obvious now that it is a u32. Fixed as well!

In this code path whenever point is assigned something do a "error = dma_fence_get_status(fence);" and then eventually copy the error to userspace after copying the point.


Hi! Were you thinking something that looks a little bit like this?

Yeah that looks like what I had in mind to.

Thanks,
Christian.


Hi! What should I do at this point? Send a v3, or..?

Thanks!
