The protection is added for three reasons: * init_data_container calls vmalloc and this does not work as expected in the GFP_NOFS context, so this silently does GFP_KERNEL and might deadlock in some cases * keep the context constraint of GFP_NOFS, used by scrub * we want to use GFP_KERNEL unconditionally inside init_ipath or its callees Reviewed-by: Anand Jain Signed-off-by: David Sterba --- diff --git a/fs/btrfs/scrub.c b/fs/btrfs/scrub.c index e99be644b19f..096e503e3ddc 100644 --- a/fs/btrfs/scrub.c +++ b/fs/btrfs/scrub.c @@ -18,6 +18,7 @@ #include #include +#include #include "ctree.h" #include "volumes.h" #include "disk-io.h" @@ -733,6 +734,7 @@ static int scrub_print_warning_inode(u64 inum, u64 offset, u64 root, u32 nlink; int ret; int i; + unsigned nofs_flag; struct extent_buffer *eb; struct btrfs_inode_item *inode_item; struct scrub_warning *swarn = warn_ctx; @@ -771,7 +773,14 @@ static int scrub_print_warning_inode(u64 inum, u64 offset, u64 root, nlink = btrfs_inode_nlink(eb, inode_item); btrfs_release_path(swarn->path); + /* + * init_path might indirectly call vmalloc, or use GFP_KERNEL.
