[PATCH 04/10] scripts/basic/fixdep: Fix error log output in print_deps()

Show all headers | View raw

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2016 19:04:01 +0200

The function "perror" was called after a call of the function "fprintf"
in two if branches. So it could happen that an error message was displayed
for a failed print operation instead of the failure according to the call
of the function "fstat" or "open" here.

* Pass the relevant error data in the logging calls directly.

* Express that the corresponding return values are intentionally unused
  by casts to void.
