Subject: [PATCH 2/9] lib: term: return error code from term_getsize()
Date: Fri, 1 May 2026 08:53:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260501070625.952091-3-a.fatoum@barebox.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260501070625.952091-1-a.fatoum@barebox.org>
Instead of silently writing a magic value of 256 into the output
parameters on error, let callers distinguish the case that
"no interactive console responded" from a legitimate terminal size
by means of an error code.
No current user makes use of the 256 magic value, so we only need to
change term_getsize() itself.
