Re: [PATCH] ext4: release page cache in ext4_mb_load_buddy error path

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Yang ,

The patch looks correct, but in my opinion a nicer fix would be to set
e4b->bd_bitmap_page = page;
or
e4b->bd_buddy_page = page;
right after assigning a new value to the temp variable 'page'.
and keeping the cleanup code in the error path as it is.

It's a matter of taste and code readability.

Amir.
