[PATCH 4.18 126/145] udlfb: handle allocation failure

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

 



4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 080fb5240bdcabed7387b814139c3ea172d59fc5 upstream.

Allocations larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER are unreliable and they
may fail anytime. This patch fixes the udlfb driver so that when a large
alloactions fails, it tries to do multiple smaller allocations.
