Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] drm/ttm: Avoid invoking the OOM killer when reading back swapped content
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 15:18:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260317141856.237876-3-thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260317141856.237876-1-thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com>

In situations where the system is very short on RAM, the shmem
readback from swap-space may invoke the OOM killer.

However, since this might be a recoverable situation where the caller
is indicating this by setting
struct ttm_operation_ctx::gfp_retry_mayfail to true, adjust the gfp
value used by the allocation accordingly.
