[PATCH 1/8] block/genhd.c: Add error handling

[PATCH 1/8] block/genhd.c: Add error handling

[Vishnu Pratap Singh]

This patch adds error handling for blk_register_region(), register_disk(),
add_disk(), disk_alloc_events() & disk_add_events().
add_disk() & register_disk() functions  error handling is very much needed
as this is used mainly by many modules like mmc, zram, mtd, scsi etc.
But there is no error handling and it may cause stability issues also.

Verfied on X86 based ubuntu machine.

Please remove these two lines from the change log.

Still it's great that you provide this information while posting the
patches, but you can do that by adding text between the sign-off-by
and "---". Just add a new line consisting of "---" and then add you
text below it.

You don't need a goto here. Please just do "return ret;" as I think it
makes code easier.

hm... I came across "FIXME: error handling" comment in add_disk() some
time ago and after a quick google search I found this:

those are different drivers, split the patches (well, if add_disk()

A separate nitpick. z2_init() coding styles need to be 'fixed'. So the
patch will not violate the kernel coding styles.

[PATCH 3/8] block/floppy.c: handle blk_register_region() return value

[Vishnu Pratap Singh]

This patch handles blk_register_region() return value.
Earlier blk_register_region() function doesn't handle error
cases, now it is added, so the callers of this function
should also handle it.

Verfied on X86 based ubuntu machine.
This patch depends on [PATCH 1/8] block/genhd.c: Add error handling

Nit: out_unreg_region should continue to be a label for the
unregister_region call.

My preference would be to add a new label here so something like
"goto out_driver_unregister" works.

I normally would ignore this sort of thing but this patch needs to be
reposted as V2 anyway.

I'd greatly prefer it we just leave it alone. Much better to have a disk 
that does actually work and with some sysfs spew in the logs, than bail 
out for fairly vague reasons.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. It's a noble thought to 
want to clean this up, but I think it does more harm than good.

That's my fault, I asked Vishnu to repost.  I had also asked whether he
had seen this in the real world, and this was the response:

  Actually while working with zram I found that during zram
  initialization it uses the add_disk function and during that time i
  have seen sometimes under low mem condition when we enable swap (zram)
  there was kzalloc fail to allocate he memory, since there is no error
  handling it took good amount of time to debug.

Cheers,
Jeff
