From e6a92013ba458804161c0c5b6d134d82204dc233 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2006 02:17:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] SRCU: report out-of-memory errors Currently the init_srcu_struct() routine has no way to report out-of-memory errors. This patch (as761) makes it return -ENOMEM when the per-cpu data allocation fails. The patch also makes srcu_init_notifier_head() report a BUG if a notifier head can't be initialized. Perhaps it should return -ENOMEM instead, but in the most likely cases where this might occur I don't think any recovery is possible. Notifier chains generally are not created dynamically.
