From d859c283c469b9d9124d90d0ac32024671372ed5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Richard W.M. Jones" Date: Wed, 3 Nov 2010 12:53:00 +0000 Subject: daemon: Send back the errno as a string. This changes the protocol again so that if the errno is available, it is converted to a string (like "EIO") and sent back over the protocol to the library. In this commit the library just discards the string. --- src/guestfs.pod | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) (limited to 'src') diff --git a/src/guestfs.pod b/src/guestfs.pod index 50e9f50b..603fe209 100644 --- a/src/guestfs.pod +++ b/src/guestfs.pod @@ -781,6 +781,9 @@ fuse/guestmount.c.
