Subject: [patch 17/27] Use __GFP_HIGH in mpage_writepages()
Date: Thu, 04 Jul 2002 16:54:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D24E046.D0945FE0@zip.com.au> (raw)
In mpage_writepage(), use __GFP_HIGH when allocating the BIO: writeback
is a memory reclaim function and is entitle to dip into the page
reserves to get its IO underway.
