When run a cache set, all the bcache btree node of this cache set will be checked by bch_btree_check(). If the bcache btree is very large, iterating all the btree nodes will occupy too much system memory and the bcache registering process might be selected and killed by system OOM killer. kthread_run() will fail if current process has pending signal, therefore the kthread creating in run_cache_set() for gc and allocator kernel threads are very probably failed for a very large bcache btree. Indeed such OOM is safe and the registering process will exit after the registration done. Therefore this patch flushes pending signals during the cache set start up, specificly in bch_cache_allocator_start() and bch_gc_thread_start(), to make sure run_cache_set() won't fail for large cahced data set.
