[PATCH 2/2] mm/memcontrol: add check for allocation failure in mem_cgroup_init()

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

 



If mem_cgroup_init() fails to allocate mem_cgroup_tree_per_node, we
should not try to initilaize it. Add check for this case to avoid
potential NULL pointer dereference.
