      drm/i915: Selectively enable self-reclaim · 4bdadb97
      Chris Wilson 提交于
      Having missed the ENOMEM return via i915_gem_fault(), there are probably
      other paths that I also missed. By not enabling NORETRY by default these
      paths can run the shrinker and take memory from the system (but not from
      our own inactive lists because our shrinker can not run whilst we hold
      the struct mutex) and this may allow the system to survive a little longer
      whilst our drivers consume all available memory.

      mm: add new 'read_cache_page_gfp()' helper function · 0531b2aa
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation
      flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory
      allocations are that populate a address space.
      
      In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do
      a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically
      shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight.  This
      allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a
      per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space
      gfp policy.
      
      The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper
      functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code
      is what most of the patch is all about.
