    nbd: set SOCK_MEMALLOC for access to PFMEMALLOC reserves · 7f338fe4
    Mel Gorman 提交于
    Set SOCK_MEMALLOC on the NBD socket to allow access to PFMEMALLOC reserves
    so pages backed by NBD, particularly if swap related, can be cleaned to
    prevent the machine being deadlocked.  It is still possible that the
    PFMEMALLOC reserves get depleted resulting in deadlock but this can be
    resolved by the administrator by increasing min_free_kbytes.
