Hi all, Today's linux-next merge of the slab tree got a conflict in: mm/slub.c between commit: 99a3e3a1cfc93 ("slab: fix kmalloc_nolock() context check for PREEMPT_RT") from the slab-fixes tree and commit: da6ed0180825d ("slab: simplify kmalloc_nolock()") a4ae75d1b6a24 ("slab: fix kmalloc_nolock() context check for PREEMPT_RT") from the slab tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts. diff --cc mm/slub.c index c58e664bb312a,331d274ba0a8c..0000000000000 --- a/mm/slub.c +++ b/mm/slub.c @@@ -5694,13 -5166,13 +5166,13 @@@ void *kmalloc_nolock_noprof(size_t size if (unlikely(!size)) return ZERO_SIZE_PTR; + /* + * See the comment for the same check in + * alloc_frozen_pages_nolock_noprof() + */ - if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) && (in_nmi() || in_hardirq())) + if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) && !preemptible()) - /* - * kmalloc_nolock() in PREEMPT_RT is not supported from - * non-preemptible context because local_lock becomes a - * sleeping lock on RT. - */ return NULL; retry: if (unlikely(size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE)) return NULL;
