From f462e8f913bdc7a28ce55508d0c045a0c445b157 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2006 13:03:57 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] uml: better error reporting for read_output Do precise error handling: print precise error messages, distinguishing short reads and read errors. This functions fails frequently enough for me so I bothered doing this fix.
