James, Andrew,

Looks like deflate_comp_init() is not calling
__vmalloc in a kosher way.

We are not in softirq, so deflate_gfp() is going
to return GFP_KERNEL, so this is essentially
__vmalloc() with GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGHMEM, PAGE_KERNEL.

Should we be using __vmalloc here, or is this a vm issue?

thanks,
Nivedita

            Summary: might_sleep warning when setting up IPSec with IPCOMP
     Kernel Version: 2.6.7
             Status: NEW

Linux 2.6.7 on x86, UP preempt

Using OpenSWAN for IPSec tunnel with IP-Compression enabled.

Often gives the following warning shortly after a connection has been set up:

I'm not exactly sure whether this is cryptoapi or the compression module or
IPCOMP's fault.
