Subject: [PATCH v2] xfs: convert dquot iterator map allocation to kmalloc_objs()
Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2026 07:25:08 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260602112508.25581-1-william@theesfeld.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260601191858.608270-1-william@theesfeld.net>
v1 converted the open-coded kmalloc(N * sizeof(*p), ...) in
xfs_qm_reset_dqcounts_buf() to kmalloc_array(). Per review feedback
from Carlos Maiolino on the v1 thread, switch instead to the
kmalloc_objs() helper, which is the preferred form for new XFS code
and matches the style of recent conversions elsewhere in fs/xfs/.
While touching this, also drop the __GFP_NOFAIL flag and handle the
allocation failure explicitly by returning -ENOMEM. The function
already has callers that propagate errors out of quotacheck setup,
so an early -ENOMEM is harmless and avoids relying on the allocator
to retry forever on memory pressure.
No functional change for the success path.
