-Subject: fs/seq_file: fallback to vmalloc allocation
-
-From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
-
-commit 058504edd02667eef8fac9be27ab3ea74332e9b4 upstream.
-
-There are a couple of seq_files which use the single_open() interface.
-This interface requires that the whole output must fit into a single
-buffer.
-
-E.g. for /proc/stat allocation failures have been observed because an
-order-4 memory allocation failed due to memory fragmentation. In such
-situations reading /proc/stat is not possible anymore.
-
-Therefore change the seq_file code to fallback to vmalloc allocations
-which will usually result in a couple of order-0 allocations and hence
-also work if memory is fragmented.
-
-For reference a call trace where reading from /proc/stat failed:
-
- sadc: page allocation failure: order:4, mode:0x1040d0
- CPU: 1 PID: 192063 Comm: sadc Not tainted 3.10.0-123.el7.s390x #1
