The patch titled Subject: ocfs2: less function calls in ocfs2_convert_inline_data_to_extents() after error detection has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is ocfs2-less-function-calls-in-ocfs2_convert_inline_data_to_extents-after-error-detection.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/ocfs2-less-function-calls-in-ocfs2_convert_inline_data_to_extents-after-error-detection.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/ocfs2-less-function-calls-in-ocfs2_convert_inline_data_to_extents-after-error-detection.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ocfs2: less function calls in ocfs2_convert_inline_data_to_extents() after error detection kfree() was called in a few cases by ocfs2_convert_inline_data_to_extents() during error handling even if the passed variable "pages" contained a null pointer. * Return from this implementation directly after failure detection for the function call "kcalloc". * Corresponding details could be improved by the introduction of another jump label.
