Subject: [PATCH] memcg: don't do cleanup manually if mem_cgroup_css_online() fails
Date: Tue, 2 Apr 2013 15:35:28 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <515A8A40.6020406@huawei.com> (raw)
If memcg_init_kmem() returns -errno when a memcg is being created,
mem_cgroup_css_online() will decrement memcg and its parent's refcnt,
(but strangely there's no mem_cgroup_put() for mem_cgroup_get() called
in memcg_propagate_kmem()).
But then cgroup core will call mem_cgroup_css_free() to do cleanup...
