Subject: [PATCH v5 02/29] md/md-llbitmap: use GFP_NOIO for cache allocations
Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2026 03:50:11 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260802195038.164272-3-yukuai@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260802195038.164272-1-yukuai@kernel.org>
From: Yu Kuai <yukuai@fygo.io>
llbitmap allocates its in-memory page cache and page-control structures from
paths that can already be holding MD reconfiguration or bitmap state locks.
For example, component_size_store() takes mddev_lock(), update_size() calls
the personality resize method, and llbitmap_resize() can grow the page cache
through llbitmap_prepare_resize().
Using GFP_KERNEL in those paths allows direct reclaim to enter filesystem or
block I/O while MD resize state is locked. That can recurse back into the
same array and wait on state that cannot make progress until the resize path
finishes.
Use GFP_NOIO for the llbitmap object, cached bitmap pages, page controls,
page-control arrays, and percpu_ref initialization. Leave the explicit
metadata zeroout path unchanged because it is intentional bitmap I/O rather
than reclaim-driven allocation.
