Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 17/17] blk-cgroup: share blkg creation between lookup and config prep
Date: Sun, 5 Jul 2026 03:51:24 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260704195124.1375075-18-yukuai@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260704195124.1375075-1-yukuai@kernel.org>
From: Yu Kuai <yukuai@fygo.io>
blkg_conf_prep() open-codes the same parent walk and blkg creation that
blkg_lookup_create() already performs. Make blkg_lookup_create() report
whether the target blkg was created or found while still returning the
closest existing blkg on failure, then have blkg_conf_prep() use the
helper and treat errors as config failures.
This keeps the bio association path's closest-blkg fallback and removes
the duplicate config path loop.
