The assumptions were that kzalloc failure is rare, as well as not finding any segment to return, as the layout hdr existence is checked in the wrapper before entering this function ad we're only doing whole file returns at this point. >> spin_lock(&ino->i_lock); >> lo = nfsi->layout; >> if (!lo || !mark_matching_lsegs_invalid(lo, &tmp_list, NULL)) { >> @@ -642,7 +641,7 @@ _pnfs_return_layout(struct inode *ino) >> kfree(lrp); If lrp is not allocated before this block no point in kfree'ing it on this exit path. > > OK Where is my coffee today > > there was no leak here.
