SubjectRe: [PATCH] zcache: don't limit number of pools per client

Might want to add something like "This places and arbitrary limit on the number of mounted filesystems that can use cleancache"

need to #include <linux/idr.h> yes?

This is called on the main path, so it needs to be fast. There is so much
contention elsewhere in the stack I don't think it'll be an issue. It looks
like idr_find() is fast, even though it contains a loop. Just needs to be
considered.

how about:
=====
do {
r = idr_pre_get(&cli->tmem_pools, GFP_ATOMIC);
if (r != 1) {
kfree(pool);
pr_info("zcache: pool creation failed: out of memory\n");
goto out;
}
r = idr_get_new(&cli->tmem_pools, pool, &poolid);
}
while (r == -EAGAIN)

if (r) {
pr_info("zcache: pool creation failed: error %d\n", r);
kfree(pool);
goto out;
}
=====
so we can lose the label/goto.

Also, do we want GFP_ATOMIC? Why not GFP_KERNEL?
