Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 04/10] dma-direct: warn if there is no pool for force unencrypted allocations
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 10:39:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910143932.771351-4-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910143932.771351-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
[ Upstream commit 78bc72787ab9e638173aeb1f589578105d3a43c9 ]
Instead of blindly running into a blocking operation for a non-blocking gfp,
return NULL and spew an error. Note that Kconfig prevents this for all
currently relevant platforms, and this is just a debug check.
