For subpage case, we need to allocate additional memory for each metadata page. So we need to: - Allow attach_extent_buffer_page() to return int to indicate allocation failure - Allow manually pre-allocate subpage memory for alloc_extent_buffer() As we don't want to use GFP_ATOMIC under spinlock, we introduce btrfs_alloc_subpage() and btrfs_free_subpage() functions for this purpose. (The simple wrap for btrfs_free_subpage() is for later convert to kmem_cache. Already internally tested without problem) - Preallocate btrfs_subpage structure for alloc_extent_buffer() We don't want to call memory allocation with spinlock held, so do preallocation before we acquire mapping->private_lock. - Handle subpage and regular case differently in attach_extent_buffer_page() For regular case, no change, just do the usual thing. For subpage case, allocate new memory or use the preallocated memory. For future subpage metadata, we will make use of radix tree to grab extent buffer.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
