Subject: [RFC 7/7] mm: Drop __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM flag if PF_MEMALLOC is set
Date: Fri, 4 Jul 2025 17:25:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250704152537.55724-8-urezki@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250704152537.55724-1-urezki@gmail.com>
The memory allocator already avoids reclaim when PF_MEMALLOC is set.
Clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM explicitly to suppress might_alloc() warnings
to make more correct behavior.
