[dm-devel] [PATCH v6 02/13] dm: Use bioset's front_pad for dm_rq_clone_bio_info

Wed Aug 22 17:03:59 UTC 2012


Previously, dm_rq_clone_bio_info needed to be freed by the bio's
destructor to avoid a memory leak in the blk_rq_prep_clone() error path.
This gets rid of a memory allocation and means we can kill
dm_rq_bio_destructor.

v6: Fix comment on struct dm_rq_clone_bio_info, per Tejun
