dm cache mq: fix memory allocation failure for large cache devices
The memory allocated for the multiqueue policy's hash table doesn't need to be physically contiguous. Use vzalloc() instead of kzalloc(). Fedora has been carrying this fix since 10/10/2013. Failure seen during creation of a 10TB cached device with a 2048 sector block size and 411GB cache size: dmsetup: page allocation failure: order:9, mode:0x10c0d0 CPU: 11 PID: 29235 Comm: dmsetup Not tainted 3.10.4 #3 Hardware name: Supermicro X8DTL/X8DTL, BIOS 2.1a 12/30/2011 000000000010c0d0 ffff880090941898 ffffffff81387ab4 ffff880090941928 ffffffff810bb26f 0000000000000009 000000000010c0d0 ffff880090941928 ffffffff81385dbc ffffffff815f3840 ffffffff00000000 000002000010c0d0 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81387ab4>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b [<ffffffff810bb26f>] warn_alloc_failed+0x110/0x124 [<ffffffff81385dbc>] ? __alloc_pages_direct_compact+0x17c/0x18e [<ffffffff810bda2e>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x6c7/0x75e [<ffffffff810bdad7>] __get_free_pages+0x12/0x3f [<ffffffff810ea148>] kmalloc_order_trace+0x29/0x88 [<ffffffff810ec1fd>] __kmalloc+0x36/0x11b [<ffffffffa031eeed>] ? mq_create+0x1dc/0x2cf [dm_cache_mq] [<ffffffffa031efc0>] mq_create+0x2af/0x2cf [dm_cache_mq] [<ffffffffa0314605>] dm_cache_policy_create+0xa7/0xd2 [dm_cache] [<ffffffffa0312530>] ? cache_ctr+0x245/0xa13 [dm_cache] [<ffffffffa031263e>] cache_ctr+0x353/0xa13 [dm_cache] [<ffffffffa012b916>] dm_table_add_target+0x227/0x2ce [dm_mod] [<ffffffffa012e8e4>] table_load+0x286/0x2ac [dm_mod] [<ffffffffa012e65e>] ? dev_wait+0x8a/0x8a [dm_mod] [<ffffffffa012e324>] ctl_ioctl+0x39a/0x3c2 [dm_mod] [<ffffffffa012e35a>] dm_ctl_ioctl+0xe/0x12 [dm_mod] [<ffffffff81101181>] vfs_ioctl+0x21/0x34 [<ffffffff811019d3>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x3b1/0x3f4 [<ffffffff810f4d2e>] ? ____fput+0x9/0xb [<ffffffff81050b6c>] ? task_work_run+0x7e/0x92 [<ffffffff81101a68>] SyS_ioctl+0x52/0x82 [<ffffffff81391d92>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
