Subject: [PATCH 1/2] break out page allocation warning code
Changed since last version:
- use pr_warning instead of open-coded KERN_WARNING
- eliminate 'wait' variable since we only use it once
--
This originally started as a simple patch to give vmalloc()
some more verbose output on failure on top of the plain
page allocator messages. Johannes suggested that it might
be nicer to lead with the vmalloc() info _before_ the page
allocator messages.
But, I do think there's a lot of value in what
__alloc_pages_slowpath() does with its filtering and so
forth.
This patch creates a new function which other allocators
can call instead of relying on the internal page allocator
warnings. It also gives this function private rate-limiting
which separates it from other printk_ratelimit() users.
