Hi Wright,

I recall you had a discussion (on the wireless list?) with Franky about 
this, but I did not chime in at that time. I am not a proponent for 
mapping our firmware errors to linux errors. It is tempting to do so 
because there is clear overlap for some, but still it is quirky and has 
no value in my opinion. This issue was already addressed in the past 
although not specifically for fixing the -EINTR case. I did some digging 
in the git history. Here was my original change:

     brcmfmac: do not use firmware error code in driver

     Passing the firmware error codes up the driver may be mapped to
     linux error numbers which may impact proper fault analysis. So
     better pass up a generic failure code, ie. -EBADE and only show
     firmware error code in FIL debug message.

The idea here was to have a single error code and have a debug message 
showing the firmware error string. This single error code could be used 
by vendor tools (not really an upstream concern) to query the driver for 
the firmware error code through a vendor specific command.

Now what happened is that Hante while inspecting logs with only error 
messages observed -EBADE and wanted to know firmware error. So he made 
the following patch a year later:

commit 21000b3f3da45a5a33de3815f3c2b3584102960e

     brcmfmac: Return actual error by fwil.

     FWIL is always mapping back errors to EBADE. This is not very
     conventient when trying to understand problems by reading logs.
     Some callers print the error code, but that is quite useless
     when the exact error code is not returned. It also makes it
     impossible to differentiate based on error code. This patch
     changes the return of EBADE into the actual error code.

However, the consequence of this was that we ended up returning firmware 
error codes into the kernel domain and user-space.

Below the change I came up with. Let me know what you think.

     brcmfmac: separate firmware errors from i/o errors

     When using the firmware api it can fail simply because firmware does
     not like the request or it fails due to issues in the host interface.
     Currently, there is only a single error code which is confusing. So
     adding a parameter to pass the firmware error separately and in case
     of a firmware error always return -EBADE to user-space.

Yes, Franky and I had a discussion in "[PATCH] brcmfmac: return -EPERM 
when getting error in vendor command handler" on wireless list, that's 
why I made a new patch for mapping firmware error code to Linux error. 
Like you said, some of firmware errors do not have good corresponding 
value in Linux, so returning generic error is good to me.

Does it exist any possible case or set command that causes the ret value 
is greater than 0? The positive ret value may be identified as error 
because following check is removed from brcmf_fil_cmd_data function.
	if (err >= 0)
		return 0;

The only possible case is with brcmf_proto_bcdc_query_dcmd() as it 
returns the length of the firmware response. However, I added ret = 0 
there after dealing with (ret < 0) case. I actually want to do that in a 
separate patch.

Good catch. Will fix it.
