Subject: [PATCH] disallow FS recursion from sb_issue_discard allocation
Date: Tue, 6 Jul 2010 12:11:56 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100706161155.GA24461@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.64.1007021605410.13662@hs20-bc2-1.build.redhat.com>
Filesystems can call sb_issue_discard on a memory reclaim path
(e.g. ext4 calls sb_issue_discard during journal commit).
Use GFP_NOFS in sb_issue_discard to avoid recursing back into the FS.
