[PATCH 1/5] KVM: Add gfp_custom flag in struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache

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

 



The kvm_mmu_topup_memory_cache() always uses GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT for
memory allocation which prevents it's use in atomic context. To address
this limitation of kvm_mmu_topup_memory_cache(), we add gfp_custom flag
in struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache. When the gfp_custom flag is set to some
GFP_xyz flags, the kvm_mmu_topup_memory_cache() will use that instead of
GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT.
