From 9295c01253b4eda5dc0b5a5b2e0fd321fe57010c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Leroy Date: Mon, 18 Dec 2017 11:08:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] gpio: sysfs: correct error handling on 'value' attribute read. 'value' attribute is supposed to only return 0 or 1 according to the documentation. With today's implementation, if gpiod_get_value_cansleep() fails the printed 'value' is a negative value. This patch ensures that an error is returned on read instead.
