Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2019 00:26:50 +0800 From: Fuqian Huang <huangfq.daxian@...il.com> To: unlisted-recipients:; (no To-header on input) Cc: Ilya Dryomov <idryomov@...il.com>, Sage Weil <sage@...hat.com>, Alex Elder <elder@...nel.org>, Jens Axboe <axboe@...nel.dk>, ceph-devel@...r.kernel.org, linux-block@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Fuqian Huang <huangfq.daxian@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH v2 04/35] block: Use kmemdup rather than duplicating its implementation kmemdup is introduced to duplicate a region of memory in a neat way. Rather than kmalloc/kzalloc + memcpy, which the programmer needs to write the size twice (sometimes lead to mistakes), kmemdup improves readability, leads to smaller code and also reduce the chances of mistakes. Suggestion to use kmemdup rather than using kmalloc/kzalloc + memcpy.
