#1791 Unchecked return value in files.c
Closed: Fixed None Opened 11 years ago by mzidek.

Found by Coverity. We check return value from closedir on other places in the code, but here not.

No check of the return value of "closedir(dir)".
678    if (dir) closedir(dir);

Right, it was pointed out during the code review of the patch that introduced the bug that it's pointless to check the return code b/c there's nothing we can do about an error anyway.

But we should be silencing Coverity, please check the return value and issue a SSSDBG_MINOR_FAILURE warning. Please be careful not to overwrite ret.

There seems to be another occurrence in files.c:

781 done:
At conditional (8): "dir" taking the true branch.
CID 13129: Unchecked return value (CHECKED_RETURN)Calling function "closedir" without checking return value (as is done elsewhere 4 out of 5 times).
