Subject: [PATCH 4/4] io_uring/futex: avoid ifd NULL check in io_futex_wait()
Date: Tue, 3 Nov 2026 14:10:31 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261103211031.592745-5-csander@purestorage.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261103211031.592745-1-csander@purestorage.com>
There are two paths that hit the done_unlock label in io_futex_wait():
the ENOMEM error path allocating ifd (via goto done_unlock) and the
futex_wait_setup() error path (via a fallthrough). In the ENOMEM path,
ifd is always NULL; in the futex_wait_setup() error path, it's always
non-NULL. Move the done_unlock label so the goto skips the ifd freeing
and the success path can free it unconditionally. This also avoids the
need to initialize ifd before the io_cache_alloc() call, as it's only
used if io_cache_alloc() succeeds.
