Subject: [PATCH] ia64: mca: allocate early mca with GFP_ATOMIC
Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2021 08:50:45 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210315085045.204414-1-slyfox@gentoo.org> (raw)

The sleep warning happens at early boot right at
secondary CPU activation bootup:

    smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...
    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/page_alloc.c:4942
    in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1

    Fixed BSP b0 value from CPU 1

As I understand interrupts are not enabled yet and system has a lot
of memory. There is little chance to sleep and switch to GFP_ATOMIC
should be a no-op.
