Subject: [PATCH] mm: clear __GFP_FS when PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO is set
Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2014 13:54:54 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1409723694-16047-1-git-send-email-junxiao.bi@oracle.com> (raw)
commit 21caf2fc1931 ("mm: teach mm by current context info to not do I/O during memory allocation")
introduces PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag to avoid doing I/O inside memory allocation, __GFP_IO is cleared
when this flag is set, but __GFP_FS implies __GFP_IO, it should also be cleared. Or it may still
run into I/O, like in superblock shrinker.
