I did a quick read and it looks good to me. It's a bit ugly to bloat current with the ubc pointer, but i guess there's no good way around that. Also not nice to use GFP_ATOMIC for the allocation, but again there's no way around it and it will eventually recover if it fails. There may be a slightly better GFP flag for this situation that doesn't dip into the interrupt pools? -Andi -- ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Speaking for myself only. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
