Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi! shrink_cache() has no error exit; this is obviously problem, because it loops until it frees enough memory, and there obviously is not infinite ammount of memory in the system. Pavel -- STOP THE WAR! Someone killed innocent Americans. That does not give U.S. right to kill people in Afganistan.
