From 1480a540c98525640174a7eadd712378fcd6fd63 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Lameter Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2006 01:00:53 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] SwapMig: add_to_swap() avoid atomic allocations Add gfp_mask to add_to_swap add_to_swap does allocations with GFP_ATOMIC in order not to interfere with swapping. During migration we may have use add_to_swap extensively which may lead to out of memory errors. This patch makes add_to_swap take a parameter that specifies the gfp mask. The page migration code can then make add_to_swap use GFP_KERNEL.
