From: Tetsuo Handa penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 22:21:54 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] drm/ttm: Avoid memory allocation from shrinker functions.
Commit a91576d7916f6cce ("drm/ttm: Pass GFP flags in order to avoid deadlock.") caused BUG_ON() due to sc->gfp_mask containing flags which are not in GFP_KERNEL.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87891
Changing from sc->gfp_mask to (sc->gfp_mask & GFP_KERNEL) would avoid the BUG_ON(), but avoiding memory allocation from shrinker function is better and reliable fix.
Shrinker functions are already serialized by commit 71336e011d1d2312 ("drm/ttm: Fix possible stack overflow by recursive shrinker calls.") and commit 22e71691fd54c637 ("drm/ttm: Use mutex_trylock() to avoid deadlock inside shrinker functions."), and clean up functions are called only after shrinker functions are unregistered. Therefore, we can use static buffer when called from shrinker functions and clean up functions.
