linux 系统调用返回 1,Linux内核系统调用返回-1而不是{-1,-256}

我是一个内核新手,面临着一个奇怪的问题.我编写了一个概念验证计算器系统调用,虽然它适用于大多数计算,但当SUBTRACTION结果介于-1到-256之间时它返回-1.如果有人可以对可能发生的事情有所了解,那就会很感激.下面是系统调用代码.

SYSCALL_DEFINE3(calc, int, a, int, b , char, op) {

int res_int;

switch(op) {

case '+': res_int = a + b;

break;

case '-': res_int = a - b;

break;

case '*': res_int = a * b;

break;

case '/': res_int = (a*1000) / b;

break;

}

printk(KERN_INFO "KERNEL CALC RESULT : %d %c %d = %ld",a, op, b, res_int);

return res_int;

}

编辑：

内核版本：Android Linux Kernel 3.10.xxx.

平台：Nexus7 ARM EABI.

我不明白的是它失败的原因. errno完全没用,因为它将-res_int设置为errno.另外,我不明白为什么只有当res_int为{-1,-256}时才会失败.

a = 1200,b = 1300 op =’ – ‘=> res_int = -100是printk打印-100的示例,但在我的用户空间应用程序中,我收到-1.

看起来当res_int为{-1,-256}时,errno被设置为-res_int.
