[PATCH] mm: Fix the flipped condition in gfpflags_allow_spinning()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function gfpflags_allow_spinning() has a bug that makes it return
the opposite result than intended. This could contribute to deadlocks as
usage profilerates, for now it was noticed as a performance regression
due to try_charge_memcg() not refilling memcg stock when it could. Fix
the flipped condition.

Fixes: 97769a53f117 ("mm, bpf: Introduce try_alloc_pages() for
opportunistic page allocation")
