Subject: [PATCH 02/11] netfs: Fix leak of request in netfs_write_begin() error handling
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 09:36:53 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420083705.1009074-3-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260420083705.1009074-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Fix netfs_write_begin() to not leak our ref on the request in the event
that we get an error from netfs_wait_for_read().
Fixes: 4090b31422a6 ("netfs: Add a function to consolidate beginning a read")
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260414082004.3756080-1-dhowells%40redhat.com
