[PATCH 4.16 029/113] virtio_console: reset on out of memory

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

 



4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5c60300d68da32ca77f7f978039dc72bfc78b06b upstream.

When out of memory and we can't add ctrl vq buffers,
probe fails. Unfortunately the error handling is
out of spec: it calls del_vqs without bothering
to reset the device first.

To fix, call the full cleanup function in this case.
