It just took some time to start reviewing patches, don't worry.
Through a quick glance, the code changes look good, and such updates
are really appreciated. However, the patches have no description at
all and it alone is suspicious. At least, please give why you added
those. Also the error codes are not comprehensive, so they must have
been chosen ones; a reason to why those are chosen would be another
thing to be written down, too, for example.
Could you resubmit with that change?
thanks,
Takashi
