[PATCH 8/9] bcache: use kvmalloc

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

 



From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

bcache_device_init uses kmalloc for small requests and vmalloc for those
which are larger than 64 pages. This alone is a strange criterion.
Moreover kmalloc can fallback to vmalloc on the failure. Let's simply
use kvmalloc instead as it knows how to handle the fallback properly
