Fix the problem by returning EFBIG described in man 2 write. Similar change was done for binary sysfs files on commit 0936896056365349afa867c16e9f9100a6707cbf Signed-off-by: Guy Shapiro Cc: linux-api@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Srinivas Kandagatla Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- diff --git a/drivers/nvmem/core.c b/drivers/nvmem/core.c index de54c7f5048a..3866117bc285 100644 --- a/drivers/nvmem/core.c +++ b/drivers/nvmem/core.c @@ -135,7 +135,7 @@ static ssize_t bin_attr_nvmem_write(struct file *filp, struct kobject *kobj, /* Stop the user from writing */ if (pos >= nvmem->size) - return 0; + return -EFBIG; if (count < nvmem->word_size) return -EINVAL;
