From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> During log recovery of an XFS filesystem with 64kB directory buffers, rebuilding a buffer split across two log records results in a memory allocation warning from krealloc like this: xfs filesystem being mounted at /mnt/scratch supports timestamps until 2038 (0x7fffffff) XFS (dm-0): Unmounting Filesystem XFS (dm-0): Mounting V5 Filesystem XFS (dm-0): Starting recovery (logdev: internal) ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 3435170 at mm/page_alloc.c:3539 get_page_from_freelist+0xdee/0xe40 .....

This is a regression caused by converting this code from an open coded no fail/no warn reallocation loop to using __GFP_NOFAIL. What we actually need here is kvrealloc(), so that if contiguous page allocation fails we fall back to vmalloc() and we don't get nasty warnings happening in XFS.
