Hi All.
I was wondering if there is an alternative to the GFP_NOFS flag provided
in Linux Kernel Malloc [kmalloc() & kfree()] for FreeBSD, or is there any
info. I am missing?
Linux calls the kmalloc() system call as:
[ an extract from jfs_dtree.c (jfs4bsd) ]
%%%
ciKey.name =
(wchar_t *) kmalloc((JFS_NAME_MAX + 1) * sizeof(wchar_t), GFP_NOFS);
%%%
As of now, I have changed this to just use M_WAITOK and malloc() call, but
I was wondering if anyone can guide me on this GFP_NOFS alternative. Also,
Alfred to told me on IRC to just #define M_NOFS 0 for now, and then worry
about it later.
TIA.
