From e9baf6e59842285bcf9570f5094e4c27674a0f7c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Thu, 15 May 2008 04:49:12 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] return to old errno choice in mkdir() et.al. In case when both EEXIST and EROFS would apply we used to return the former in mkdir(2) and friends. Lest anyone suspects us of being consistent, in the same situation knfsd gave clients nfs_erofs... ro-bind series had switched the syscall side of things to returning -EROFS and immediately broke an application - namely, mkdir -p. Patch restores the original behaviour...
