Subject: [PATCH 4.4 09/52] xen: dont continue xenstore initialization in case of errors
Date: Mon,  6 Dec 2021 15:55:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211206145548.213601037@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211206145547.892668902@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xilinx.com>

commit 08f6c2b09ebd4b326dbe96d13f94fee8f9814c78 upstream.

In case of errors in xenbus_init (e.g. missing xen_store_gfn parameter),
we goto out_error but we forget to reset xen_store_domain_type to
XS_UNKNOWN. As a consequence xenbus_probe_initcall and other initcalls
will still try to initialize xenstore resulting into a crash at boot.
