Subject: [PATCH] ice: Don't use GFP_KERNEL in atomic context
Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2022 19:46:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <40c94af2f9140794351593047abc95ca65e4e576.1642358759.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> (raw)

ice_misc_intr() is an irq handler. It should not sleep.

Use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL when allocating some memory.

Fixes: 348048e724a0 ("ice: Implement iidc operations")
Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr>

I've never played a lot with irq handler. My understanding is that they
should never sleep. So GFP_KERNEL must be avoided. So I guess that this
patch is correct.

However, I don't know if some special cases allow such allocation.
Any feedback/pointer to a good doc/explanation is welcome :)
