From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: green@linuxhacker.ru Date: Sun, 1 Feb 2015 22:59:54 -0500 Subject: [Cluster-devel] [PATCH] gfs2: use __vmalloc GFP_NOFS for fs-related allocations. Message-ID: <1422849594-15677-1-git-send-email-green@linuxhacker.ru> List-Id: To: cluster-devel.redhat.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit From: Oleg Drokin leaf_dealloc uses vzalloc as a fallback to kzalloc(GFP_NOFS), so it clearly does not want any shrinker activity within the fs itself. convert vzalloc into __vmalloc(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_ZERO) to better achieve this goal.
