Subject: Under Solaris KM_SLEEP ensures success (or at least you hang forever).
X-Git-Tag: spl-0.4.0~22
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c22e7a427bfbea456e783c918fad817f3c4f34ce;p=spl

Under Solaris KM_SLEEP ensures success (or at least you hang forever).
That said when working with a finite resource like memory failure really
is always a possibility.  It would be far better longer term if the ZFS
code could be weened off this assumption and properly handle the cases
where an allocation fails.  Still I've applied the patch to spl-0.3.4
since this layer is supposed to emulate Solaris as closely as possible.
