Hi list, in file mm/slab.c and routine kmem_cache_init() I found there is no checking for allocated memory on line:
/* 4) Replace the bootstrap head arrays */ { struct array_cache *ptr; ptr = kmalloc(sizeof(struct arraycache_init), GFP_KERNEL); --> no check for ptr == NULL <-- local_irq_disable(); BUG_ON(cpu_cache_get(&cache_cache) != &initarray_cache.cache); memcpy(ptr, cpu_cache_get(&cache_cache), sizeof(struct arraycache_init)); ... is that OK? or it's a bug?
