Hi,
in hdparm.c we already have:
/* Busybox messages and functions */
static int bb_ioctl(int fd, int request, void *argp, const char *string)
{
int e = ioctl(fd, request, argp);
if (e && string)
bb_perror_msg(" %s", string);
return e;
}
so that we can pass also an error message if needed, maybe this could be also
static int bb_ioctl(int fd, int request, void *argp, ...)
{
va_list p;
char *string;
va_start(p, request);
string = va_arg(va_list p, (char *));
int e = ioctl(fd, request, argp);
if (e && string)
bb_perror_msg(" %s", string);
va_end(p);
return e;
}
untested, just an idea.
Ciao,
