Subject: [PATCH] recover from iclog allocation failures
Date: Fri, 08 Feb 2008 23:45:53 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47AD3E11.7020608@redhat.com> (raw)

A user in #xfs had some strange thing hogging up vmalloc
space, and after mounting several xfs filesystems with 
aggressive log memory usage, started hitting vmalloc failures 
which led to an oops.

I inserted a fake failure at i=3 in the iclog alloc loop, and 
this patch let me exit with a graceful "ENOMEM" instead of an 
oops.

Also, somehow the use of "uuid_mounted" has gone stale; after
the graceful mount failure, I got dup uuid errors on the next
mount.  This patch fixes that problem as well.
