[PATCH 4/6] f2fs: mark gc_thread as NULL when thread creation failed

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

 



From: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When gc thread creatio failed, mark gc_thread as NULL to avoid
crash while trying to stop invalid thread in
stop_gc_thread->kthread_stop.
Instead make it return from:
	if (!gc_th)
       return;
