From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2010 15:56:05 +0000 (-0400) Subject: jbd2: Remove __GFP_NOFAIL from jbd2 layer X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=47def82672b3;p=linux-beck.git jbd2: Remove __GFP_NOFAIL from jbd2 layer __GFP_NOFAIL is going away, so add our own retry loop. Also add jbd2__journal_start() and jbd2__journal_restart() which take a gfp mask, so that file systems can optionally (re)start transaction handles using GFP_KERNEL. If they do this, then they need to be prepared to handle receiving an PTR_ERR(-ENOMEM) error, and be ready to reflect that error up to userspace.
