This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ncpfs: return proper error from NCP_IOC_SETROOT ioctl to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt4. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From bdfac286bdf461a0df5f59ac05139d79e4ed541b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 15:52:22 -0800 Subject: ncpfs: return proper error from NCP_IOC_SETROOT ioctl commit a682e9c28cac152e6e54c39efcf046e0c8cfcf63 upstream. If some error happens in NCP_IOC_SETROOT ioctl, the appropriate error return value is then (in most cases) just overwritten before we return. This can result in reporting success to userspace although error happened. This bug was introduced by commit 2e54eb96e2c8 ("BKL: Remove BKL from ncpfs"). Propagate the errors correctly.
