The patch titled
Cleanup gfp.h: remove __GFP_DMA32 ifdef
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
reduce-max_nr_zones-make-zone_highmem-optional-fix-fix.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into reduce-max_nr_zones-make-zone_highmem-optional.patch
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Cleanup gfp.h: remove __GFP_DMA32 ifdef
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>
The __GFP_xx definitions in include/linux/gfp.h are used to refer to
individual bits in the GFP bitmasks. I think they should not be
conditional via ifdef. If a conditional definition is required then a
version without the underscore should be used.
My patch from yesterday cleared up the definitions that resulted in zero
values. This one removes the #ifdef around __GFP_DMA32.
The x86_64 arch code is the only user of __GFP_DMA32 and x86_64 sets
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32. No driver is using DMA32. So we do not really need
fall back behavior for ZONE_DMA32 at this point.
If ZONE_DMA32 would be used by a device driver in the future on a platform
that has not set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 then we will fall back to ZONE_NORMAL
because the __GFP_DMA32 bit is not set in GFP_ZONEMASK. I think if
different behavior is desired then the device driver would have to take
care of falling back to a different allocation. The absence of DMA32 slab
support may already force the device driver to deal with this case anyways.
Another solution would be to make the definition of GFP_DMA32 conditional
on CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 and 32/64 bit. That would leave the __GFP_xx
untouched.
