[PATCH 040/103] target: Add comment & cleanup transport_map_sg_to_mem()

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

 



From: Andy Grover <agrover@xxxxxxxxxx>

I initially freaked out and wrote a patch that ensured this function
didn't return a partially allocated list (possible if a later mem
allocation failed), and cleaned up if the second call to map_sg_to_mem
failed. But it isn't necessary -- on error we end up eventually calling
transport_free_pages, which walks both and frees all se_mem entries.

I added a comment to explain this, and also removed a second variable
getting incremented for each loop iter, because the two would never be
different.
