Not sure I understand. Are you suggesting we ignore failures from ->alloc() callback in _misc_cg_res_alloc() as it is per-resource, and have ->free() callback and resource provider of the failing type to handle the failure internally?

IIUC, this failure only happens when a specific subcgroup is created (memory running out for allocation) so failing that subcgroup as a whole seems fine to me. Note the root node is static and no pre-resource callbacks invoked by misc. And resource provider handles its own allocations for root. In SGX case we too declare a static object for corresponding root sgx_cgroup struct.

Note also misc cgroup (except for setting capacity[res] = 0 at root) is all or nothing so no mechanism to tell user "this resource does not work but others are fine in this particular cgroup."

Thanks
