Message-Id: <e8875ce96124d1f30acf6a237d0a67f2194d13a6.1685379264.git.aclaudi@redhat.com> Date: Mon, 29 May 2023 18:59:15 +0200 From: Andrea Claudi <aclaudi@...hat.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: stephen@...workplumber.org, dsahern@...il.com, me@...chata.org Subject: [PATCH iproute2] ipstats: fix message reporting error strerror() accepts any integer as arguments, but returns meaningful error descriptions only for positive integers. ipstats code uses strerror on a code path where either err is 0 or -ENOMEM, thus resulting in a useless error message. Fix this using errno and moving the error printing closer to the only function populating it in this code path.
