From: Brian Behlendorf Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2012 02:00:59 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Disable page allocation warnings for ARC buffers X-Git-Url: https://git.camperquake.de/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ebcfc8a53450fd71443668191507770e17c409bd;p=zfs.git Disable page allocation warnings for ARC buffers Buffers for the ARC are normally backed by the SPL virtual slab. However, if memory is low, AND no slab objects are available, AND a new slab cannot be quickly constructed a new emergency object will be directly allocated. These objects can be as large as order 5 on a system with 4k pages. And because they are allocated with KM_PUSHPAGE, to avoid a potential deadlock, they are not allowed to initiate I/O to satisfy the allocation. This can result in the occasional allocation failure. However, since these allocations are allowed to block and perform operations such as memory compaction they will eventually succeed. Since this is not unexpected (just unlikely) behavior this patch disables the warning for the allocation failure.
