Subject: [BUG] skge: a possible sleep-in-atomic bug in skge_remove
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2017 16:38:12 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1e8a8196-f0d1-2a82-3632-b882787c4391@gmail.com> (raw)

According to drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/skge.c, the driver may sleep 
under a spinlock.
The function call path is:
skge_remove (acquire the spinlock)
   free_irq --> may sleep

I do not find a good way to fix it, so I only report.
This possible bug is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC) and checked 
by my code review.


Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
