Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm/migrate.c: Fix return code when migration fails
Date: Mon,  7 Aug 2023 16:39:44 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230807063945.911582-1-apopple@nvidia.com> (raw)

When a page fails to migrate move_pages() returns the error code in a
per-page array of status values. The function call itself is also
supposed to return a summary error code indicating that a failure
occurred.

This doesn't always happen. Instead success can be returned even
though some pages failed to migrate. This is due to incorrectly
returning the error code from store_status() rather than the code from
add_page_for_migration. Fix this by only returning an error from
store_status() if the store actually failed.
