Subject: [PATCH -next 0/2] bnx2: allow sleep during allocation
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2010 10:25:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100715142530.12504.80404.send-patch@dhcp-lab-109.englab.brq.redhat.com> (raw)
We have Fedora bug report about memory allocation failure in bnx2_open
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612861). To prevent
failure we can allow allocator to sleep. Both patches add
GFP_KERNEL flag where possible, first patch in alloc API, second
in DMA API (after conversion from pci_dma_*).
