[PATCH] xprtrdma: Update the GFP flags used in xprt_rdma_allocate()

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

 



Reflect the more conservative approach used in the socket transport's
version of this transport method. An RPC buffer allocation should
avoid forcing not just FS activity, but any I/O.

In particular, two recent changes missed updating xprtrdma:

 - Commit c6c8fe79a83e ("net, sunrpc: suppress allocation warning ...")
 - Commit a564b8f03986 ("nfs: enable swap on NFS")

Hi Anna-

Could you append this after my recent NFS/RDMA client patches for 3.20 ?
Thanks!
