The last one is potentially problematic if you look at __vmalloc_node_range and __vmalloc_area_node. vmalloc has changed a lot since I last familiar with the code but I think it should not attempt a high-order allocation for 64K but __vmalloc_area_node will call alloc_pages_node with a GFP mask without __GFP_NOFAIL. In most cases, it may still succeed but it could fail if the system is OOM. Did I miss something? I didn't do a full audit to determine what fallout, if any, there is to ultimately passing __GFP_NOFAIL to kvmalloc although kvmalloc_node explicitly notes that __GFP_NOFAIL is not supported. Adding Michal Hocko to the cc to see if he remembers why __GFP_NOFAIL was problematic. Absent being able to pass in __GFP_NOFAIL to kvmalloc_node, the new helper kvrealloc may need to understand __GFP_NOFAIL, avoid passing it to kvmalloc and indefintiely retry instead to avoid an XFS log recovery hitting a NULL pointer exception when the memcpy is tried :( -- Mel Gorman SUSE Labs
