From: "Hailong.Liu" <hailong.liu@xxxxxxxx> Commit a421ef303008 ("mm: allow !GFP_KERNEL allocations for kvmalloc") includes support for __GFP_NOFAIL, but it presents a conflict with commit dd544141b9eb ("vmalloc: back off when the current task is OOM-killed"). A possible scenario is as belows: process-a kvcalloc(n, m, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL) __vmalloc_node_range() __vmalloc_area_node() vm_area_alloc_pages() --> oom-killer send SIGKILL to process-a if (fatal_signal_pending(current)) break; --> return NULL; to fix this, do not check fatal_signal_pending() in vm_area_alloc_pages() if __GFP_NOFAIL set.

Why taging this as RFC here? It seems a corner-case fix of commit a421ef303008 Thanks, Gao Xiang
