[PATCH 3/3] ext4: Use bdev_getblk() to avoid memory reclaim in readahead path

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

 



sb_getblk_gfp adds __GFP_NOFAIL, which is unnecessary for readahead;
we're quite comfortable with the possibility that we may not get a bh
back.  Switch to bdev_getblk() which does not include __GFP_NOFAIL.
