SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] mtd: ubi: eba.c: fix return value overwrite issue in try_write_vid_and_data()
From
Date
> The commit 2d78aee426d8 ("UBI: simplify LEB write and atomic LEB change code")
> adds helper function, try_write_vid_and_data(), to simplify the code, but this
> helper function has bug, it will return 0 (success) when ubi_io_write_vid_hdr()
> or the ubi_io_write_data() return error number (-EIO, etc), because the return
> value of ubi_wl_put_peb() will overwrite the original return value.
>
> This issue will cause unexpected data loss issue, because the caller of this
> function and UBIFS willn't know the data is lost.
