From f7ca54f486d3b07f48b8bbc92705bde6ba98ee54 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederik Deweerdt Date: Fri, 29 Sep 2006 02:01:02 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix mem_write() return value At the beginning of the routine, "copied" is set to 0, but it is no good because in lines 805 and 812 it is set to other values. Finally, the routine returns as if it copied 12 (=ENOMEM) bytes less than it actually did.
