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 mappings and un-mappings in ext4/inline.c 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/ext4/inline.c | 12 ++++++------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/ext4/inline.c b/fs/ext4/inline.c index 2b42ececa46d..bfb044425d8a 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/inline.c +++ b/fs/ext4/inline.c @@ -490,10 +490,10 @@ static int ext4_read_inline_page(struct inode *inode, struct page *page) goto out; len = min_t(size_t, ext4_get_inline_size(inode), i_size_read(inode)); - kaddr = kmap_atomic(page); + kaddr = kmap_local_page(page); ret = ext4_read_inline_data(inode, kaddr, len, &iloc); flush_dcache_page(page); - kunmap_atomic(kaddr); + kunmap_local(kaddr); zero_user_segment(page, len, PAGE_SIZE); SetPageUptodate(page); brelse(iloc.bh); @@ -763,9 +763,9 @@ int ext4_write_inline_data_end(struct inode *inode, loff_t pos, unsigned len, */ (void) ext4_find_inline_data_nolock(inode); - kaddr = kmap_atomic(page); + kaddr = kmap_local_page(page); ext4_write_inline_data(inode, &iloc, kaddr, pos, copied); - kunmap_atomic(kaddr); + kunmap_local(kaddr); SetPageUptodate(page); /* clear page dirty so that writepages wouldn't work for us. */ ClearPageDirty(page); @@ -831,9 +831,9 @@ ext4_journalled_write_inline_data(struct inode *inode, } ext4_write_lock_xattr(inode, &no_expand); - kaddr = kmap_atomic(page); + kaddr = kmap_local_page(page); ext4_write_inline_data(inode, &iloc, kaddr, 0, len); - kunmap_atomic(kaddr); + kunmap_local(kaddr); ext4_write_unlock_xattr(inode, &no_expand); return iloc.bh; -- 2.39.0
