Hi all,
When i read ramfs's inode file fs/ramfs/inode.c. I just see the following codes
and get some confusions.

[......]
static void ramfs_kill_sb(struct super_block *sb)
{
           kfree(sb->s_fs_info);
           kill_litter_super(sb);
}
[.....]

If we can really free the sb->s_fs_info successfully everytime? Ok, you may say
kfree returns no value. But how we can guarantee it can be freed
right. And The same
problem with the function kill_litter_super(sb). We  also have some
other functions, which
i have the same confusions. I have searched the relevant codes about
kfree() with the tool
ctags and cscope, but i get so many relevant codes. I can not
distinguish which is the right
one. I think if we can not let the os stop, we just printk the
relevant error logs and make os
run as usual.


Thanks
