From d66f43666a6811bcc3e529d5a088e1bdde94ca1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrii Nakryiko Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2019 16:58:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] libbpf: make libbpf_strerror_r agnostic to sign of error It's often inconvenient to switch sign of error when passing it into libbpf_strerror_r. It's better for it to handle that automatically.
