This API is quite popular $ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l 77 the only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily too complex. This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM are simplified and drop the flag. Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko --- Hi, this has been posted [1] as an RFC before and nobody really screamed about this. Well, there was only little feedback, to be honest. I still believe this is an improvement and the implicit __GFP_HIGHMEM will make the __vmalloc* usage less error prone.
