The patch titled Subject: pipe: simplify logic in alloc_pipe_info() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is pipe-simplify-logic-in-alloc_pipe_info.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/pipe-simplify-logic-in-alloc_pipe_info.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/pipe-simplify-logic-in-alloc_pipe_info.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: "Michael Kerrisk (man-pages)" <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: pipe: simplify logic in alloc_pipe_info() Replace an 'if' block that covers most of the code in this function with a 'goto'. This makes the code a little simpler to read, and also simplifies the next patch (fix limit checking in alloc_pipe_info()) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/aef030c1-0257-98a9-4988-186efa48530c@xxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Willy Tarreau <w@xxxxxx> Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <socketpair@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxx> Cc: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/pipe.c | 43 ++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) diff -puN fs/pipe.c~pipe-simplify-logic-in-alloc_pipe_info fs/pipe.c --- a/fs/pipe.c~pipe-simplify-logic-in-alloc_pipe_info +++ a/fs/pipe.c @@ -625,33 +625,34 @@ static bool too_many_pipe_buffers_hard(s struct pipe_inode_info *alloc_pipe_info(void) { struct pipe_inode_info *pipe; + unsigned long pipe_bufs = PIPE_DEF_BUFFERS; + struct user_struct *user = get_current_user(); pipe = kzalloc(sizeof(struct pipe_inode_info), GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT); - if (pipe) { - unsigned long pipe_bufs = PIPE_DEF_BUFFERS; - struct user_struct *user = get_current_user(); + if (pipe == NULL) + goto out_free_uid; - if (!too_many_pipe_buffers_hard(user)) { - if (too_many_pipe_buffers_soft(user)) - pipe_bufs = 1; - pipe->bufs = kcalloc(pipe_bufs, - sizeof(struct pipe_buffer), - GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT); - } + if (!too_many_pipe_buffers_hard(user)) { + if (too_many_pipe_buffers_soft(user)) + pipe_bufs = 1; + pipe->bufs = kcalloc(pipe_bufs, + sizeof(struct pipe_buffer), + GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT); + } - if (pipe->bufs) { - init_waitqueue_head(&pipe->wait); - pipe->r_counter = pipe->w_counter = 1; - pipe->buffers = pipe_bufs; - pipe->user = user; - account_pipe_buffers(user, 0, pipe_bufs); - mutex_init(&pipe->mutex); - return pipe; - } - free_uid(user); - kfree(pipe); + if (pipe->bufs) { + init_waitqueue_head(&pipe->wait); + pipe->r_counter = pipe->w_counter = 1; + pipe->buffers = pipe_bufs; + pipe->user = user; + account_pipe_buffers(user, 0, pipe_bufs); + mutex_init(&pipe->mutex); + return pipe; } + kfree(pipe); +out_free_uid: + free_uid(user); return NULL; } _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxx are pipe-relocate-round_pipe_size-above-pipe_set_size.patch pipe-move-limit-checking-logic-into-pipe_set_size.patch pipe-refactor-argument-for-account_pipe_buffers.patch pipe-fix-limit-checking-in-pipe_set_size.patch pipe-simplify-logic-in-alloc_pipe_info.patch pipe-fix-limit-checking-in-alloc_pipe_info.patch pipe-make-account_pipe_buffers-return-a-value-and-use-it.patch pipe-cap-initial-pipe-capacity-according-to-pipe-max-size-limit.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
