From ee36e441feb58e5a0e8276654aec0e391d5b2b81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ye Bin Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2022 10:32:31 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: allocate extended attribute value in vmalloc area commit cc12a6f25e07ed05d5825a1664b67a970842b2ca upstream. Now, extended attribute value maximum length is 64K. The memory requested here does not need continuous physical addresses, so it is appropriate to use kvmalloc to request memory. At the same time, it can also cope with the situation that the extended attribute will become longer in the future.
