From e1a1cd590e3fcb0d2e230128daf2337ea55387dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Balbir Singh Date: Thu, 7 Feb 2008 00:14:02 -0800 Subject: Memory controller: make charging gfp mask aware Nick Piggin pointed out that swap cache and page cache addition routines could be called from non GFP_KERNEL contexts. This patch makes the charging routine aware of the gfp context. Charging might fail if the cgroup is over it's limit, in which case a suitable error is returned. This patch was tested on a Powerpc box. I am still looking at being able to test the path, through which allocations happen in non GFP_KERNEL contexts.
