From: Mel Gorman Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2012 23:44:23 +0000 (-0700) Subject: netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c48a11c7;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb The skb->pfmemalloc flag gets set to true iff during the slab allocation of data in __alloc_skb that the the PFMEMALLOC reserves were used. If the packet is fragmented, it is possible that pages will be allocated from the PFMEMALLOC reserve without propagating this information to the skb. This patch propagates page->pfmemalloc from pages allocated for fragments to the skb. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman Acked-by: David S.
