From ac47b003d03c2a4f28aef1d505b66d24ad191c4f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hugh Dickins Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 14:39:39 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: remove gfp_mask from add_to_swap Remove gfp_mask argument from add_to_swap(): it's misleading because its only caller, shrink_page_list(), is not atomic at that point; and in due course (implementing discard) we'll sometimes want to allocate some memory with GFP_NOIO (as is used in swap_writepage) when allocating swap. No change to the gfp_mask passed down to add_to_swap_cache(): still use __GFP_HIGH without __GFP_WAIT (with nomemalloc and nowarn as before): though it's not obvious if that's the best combination to ask for here.
