From 294fc7a4c8ec42b3053b1d2e87b0dafef80a76b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tetsuo Handa Date: Thu, 1 Aug 2019 13:47:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fs: xfs: xfs_log: Don't use KM_MAYFAIL at xfs_log_reserve(). When the system is close-to-OOM, fsync() may fail due to -ENOMEM because xfs_log_reserve() is using KM_MAYFAIL. It is a bad thing to fail writeback operation due to user-triggerable OOM condition. Since we are not using KM_MAYFAIL at xfs_trans_alloc() before calling xfs_log_reserve(), let's use the same flags at xfs_log_reserve(). oom-torture: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0x46c40(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOWARN|__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null) CPU: 7 PID: 1662 Comm: oom-torture Kdump: loaded Not tainted 5.3.0-rc2+ #925 Hardware name: VMware, Inc.
