From 9b4c0ff32ccd87ab52d4c5bd0a0536febce11370 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2010 14:28:03 +0200 Subject: ocfs2: Fix deadlock when allocating page We cannot call grab_cache_page() when holding filesystem locks or with a transaction started as grab_cache_page() calls page allocation with GFP_KERNEL flag and thus page reclaim can recurse back into the filesystem causing deadlocks or various assertion failures. We have to use find_or_create_page() instead and pass it GFP_NOFS as we do with other allocations.
