Hi Ben,
you know the udf_fill_inode() in inode.c does not check if memory allocation failed:
UDF_I_DATA(inode) = kmalloc(inode->i_sb->s_blocksize - sizeof(struct extendedFileEntry), GFP_KERNEL);
so the question I have is - what kind of handler there should be: just exit out from the function or mark the inode as bad?
