Subject: [PATCH] tmpfs: Restore functionality of nr_inodes=0
Date: Tue,  1 Sep 2020 23:57:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200902035715.16414-1-gandalf@winds.org> (raw)

Commit e809d5f0b5c9 ("tmpfs: per-superblock i_ino support") made changes to
shmem_reserve_inode() in mm/shmem.c, however the original test for
(sbinfo->max_inodes) got dropped. This causes mounting tmpfs with option
nr_inodes=0 to fail:

  # mount -ttmpfs -onr_inodes=0 none /ext0
  mount: /ext0: mount(2) system call failed: Cannot allocate memory.

This patch restores the nr_inodes=0 functionality.

Fixes: e809d5f0b5c9 ("tmpfs: per-superblock i_ino support")
