[PATCH 10/28] shrinkers: use defer_work for GFP_NOFS sensitive shrinkers

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

 



From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>

For shrinkers that currently avoid scanning when called under
GFP_NOFS contexts, convert them to use the new ->defer_work flag
rather than checking and returning errors during scans.

This makes it very clear that these shrinkers are not doing any work
because of the context limitations, not because there is no work
that can be done.
