proc: more readdir conversion bug-fixes
In the previous commit, Richard Genoud fixed proc_root_readdir(), which had lost the check for whether all of the non-process /proc entries had been returned or not. But that in turn exposed _another_ bug, namely that the original readdir conversion patch had yet another problem: it had lost the return value of proc_readdir_de(), so now checking whether it had completed successfully or not didn't actually work right anyway. This reinstates the non-zero return for the "end of base entries" that had also gotten lost in commit f0c3b5093add ("[readdir] convert procfs"). So now you get all the base entries *and* you get all the process entries, regardless of getdents buffer size. (Side note: the Linux "getdents" manual page actually has a nice example application for testing getdents, which can be easily modified to use different buffers. Who knew? Man-pages can be useful) Reported-by: Emmanuel Benisty <benisty.e@gmail.com> Reported-by: Marc Dionne <marc.c.dionne@gmail.com> Cc: Richard Genoud <richard.genoud@gmail.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
