Subject: [PATCH bpf] xsk: silence warning on memory allocation failure
Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2018 13:57:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180611115712.9680-1-bjorn.topel@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Björn Töpel <bjorn.topel@intel.com>

syzkaller reported a warning from xdp_umem_pin_pages():

This is a warning about attempting to allocate more than
KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE memory. The request originates from userspace, and if
the request is too big, the kernel is free to deny its allocation. In
this patch, the failed allocation attempt is silenced with
__GFP_NOWARN.

Fixes: c0c77d8fb787 ("xsk: add user memory registration support sockopt")
