Re: [PATCH v10 18/21] uvcvideo: improve error handling in uvc_query_ctrl()

Hi Ricardo and Hans,

Thank you for the patch.

Please add a "media: " prefix to the subject line. Same for the other
patches in the series that are missing this.

- If __uvc_query_ctrl() failed with a non-EPIPE error, then
  report that with dev_err. If an error code is obtained, then
  report that with dev_dbg.

- For error 2 (Wrong state) return -EACCES instead of -EILSEQ.
  EACCES is a much more appropriate error code. EILSEQ will return
  "Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character." in strerror(),
  which is a *very* confusing message.
I would still have split the patch in two :-)

What if ret >= 0 ? There's a change of behaviour here that isn't
documented in the commit message. It shouldn't happen, but it would be
nice to handle it correctly.

This will print an error message that doesn't match the error.
