Subject[PATCH 43/44] kdbus: Give up on failed fd allocation
Message-ID<qhhIe-2d4-17@gated-at.bofh.it>
If we failed to allocate a file descriptor, do not try to do it again on
the next iteration. There are few chances that we will have success, and
we can simplify the algorithm assuming that valid fd numbers are not
mixed with -1 values.

Why? This is no a fast-path, and the penalty is accounted on the
actual culprit (the caller). I don't see why we should optimize for
that case. If the fd-allocation fails, you clearly did something
wrong.

Thanks

I agree, but this is optimization for readability and not for speed.
If we don't care whether fd-allocation failed or not, why should we keep
less readable variant which handles those -1 values mixed with valid fds
numbers?
