Subject: [PATCH 2/6] tracing: Missing error code in tracer_alloc_buffers()
Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2017 10:21:45 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170824142224.964178955@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20170824142143.110862355@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-tracing-Missing-error-code-in-tracer_alloc_buffers.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1051 bytes --]

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

If ring_buffer_alloc() or one of the next couple function calls fail
then we should return -ENOMEM but the current code returns success.
