H A D | vmalloc.c | diff 7ac674f52778b95450509357435320be1d795248 Thu Jul 19 03:49:10 CDT 2007 Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> vmalloc_32 should use GFP_KERNEL
I've noticed lots of failures of vmalloc_32 on machines where it shouldn't have failed unless it was doing an atomic operation.
Looking closely, I noticed that:
#if defined(CONFIG_64BIT) && defined(CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32) #define GFP_VMALLOC32 GFP_DMA32 #elif defined(CONFIG_64BIT) && defined(CONFIG_ZONE_DMA) #define GFP_VMALLOC32 GFP_DMA #else #define GFP_VMALLOC32 GFP_KERNEL #endif
Which seems to be incorrect, it should always -or- in the DMA flags on top of GFP_KERNEL, thus this patch.
This fixes frequent errors launchin X with the nouveau DRM for example.
