kmap_atomic() is deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Therefore, replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page(). kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables page-faults and preemption (the latter only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels). However, the code within the mapping and un-mapping in ext2_make_empty() does not depend on the above-mentioned side effects. Therefore, a mere replacement of the old API with the new one is all it is required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly add any calls to pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()). Suggested-by: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Fabio M. De Francesco <fmdefrancesco@xxxxxxxxx> --- I tried my best to understand the code within mapping and un-mapping. However, I'm not an expert. Therefore, although I'm pretty confident, I cannot be 100% sure that the code between the mapping and the un-mapping does not depend on pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable(). Unfortunately, I cannot currently test this changes to check the above-mentioned assumptions. However, if I'm required to do the tests with (x)fstests, I have no problems with doing them in the next days. If so, I'll test in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with HIGHMEM64GB enabled. I'd like to hear whether or not the maintainers require these tests and/or other tests. fs/ext2/dir.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/ext2/dir.c b/fs/ext2/dir.c index e5cbc27ba459..0f144c5c7861 100644 --- a/fs/ext2/dir.c +++ b/fs/ext2/dir.c @@ -646,7 +646,7 @@ int ext2_make_empty(struct inode *inode, struct inode *parent) unlock_page(page); goto fail; } - kaddr = kmap_atomic(page); + kaddr = kmap_local_page(page); memset(kaddr, 0, chunk_size); de = (struct ext2_dir_entry_2 *)kaddr; de->name_len = 1; @@ -661,7 +661,7 @@ int ext2_make_empty(struct inode *inode, struct inode *parent) de->inode = cpu_to_le32(parent->i_ino); memcpy (de->name, "..\0", 4); ext2_set_de_type (de, inode); - kunmap_atomic(kaddr); + kunmap_local(kaddr); ext2_commit_chunk(page, 0, chunk_size); err = ext2_handle_dirsync(inode); fail: -- 2.39.0
