Subject: [PATCH] nvme-fc: fix sleep-in-atomic-context bug caused by nvme_fc_rcv_ls_req
Date: Sun,  2 Oct 2022 08:19:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221002001909.20070-1-duoming@zju.edu.cn> (raw)

The function lpfc_poll_timeout() is a timer handler that runs in an
atomic context, but it calls "kzalloc(.., GFP_KERNEL)" that may sleep.
As a result, the sleep-in-atomic-context bug will happen. The processes
is shown below:

lpfc_poll_timeout()
 lpfc_sli_handle_fast_ring_event()
  lpfc_sli_process_unsol_iocb()
   lpfc_complete_unsol_iocb()
    lpfc_nvme_unsol_ls_handler()
     lpfc_nvme_handle_lsreq()
      nvme_fc_rcv_ls_req()
       kzalloc(sizeof(.., GFP_KERNEL) //may sleep

This patch changes the gfp_t parameter of kzalloc() from GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_ATOMIC in order to mitigate the bug.

Fixes: 14fd1e98afaf ("nvme-fc: Add Disconnect Association Rcv support")
