[Xen-devel] [PATCH 2/2] tools/xenstore: Accumulate errors in xenstore-ls and exit appropriately

[David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Report only one error to stderr for each node, regardless of whether it's
xs_read, xs_get_permissions or xs_directory on the child that fails.

Always exit with a non-zero code if any failure happens, reporting the
last error that occurred.
