Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 2/2] tracing: Do not call map->ops->elt_free() if elt_alloc() fails
Date: Thu, 21 May 2026 16:45:29 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260521204710.725769391@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260521204527.100913207@kernel.org

From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>

In paths where tracing_map_elt_alloc() failed to allocate objects,
the map->ops->elt_alloc() call was never successful. In this case,
map->ops->elt_free() should not be called.
