Changes from v1 lkml.kernel.org/r/20180524211135.27760-1-dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx - patch 2 is reworked a bit based on the commments from Herbert Xu. o upon failure, retry immediately with GFP_NOFAIL (simpler) o the caller now passes the needed semantics, not bucket_table_alloc(). o we consider min_size when resizing, not just HASH_MIN_SIZE. - removed patch 3; not need after Michal's patch. Hi, This series is the result of the discussion with Linus around ipc subsystem initialization and how it behaves with error return when calling rhashtable_init()[1]. Instead of caring about the error or calling the infamous BUG_ON, Linus suggested we guarantee the rhashtable allocation. First two patches modify rhashtable_init() to just return 0, future patches will update more callers, particularly those that use BUG_ON. patch 3+4 remove some ipc hacks we no longer need. patch 5 updates the rhashtable test module. Trivial. Please consider for v4.18. Thanks!
