Subject: [PATCH] ibmvscsi: use GFP_ATOMIC with dma_alloc_coherent in map_sg_data
Date: Wed,  9 Jan 2019 18:58:56 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1547089136-20264-1-git-send-email-tyreld@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

While mapping DMA for scatter list when a scsi command is queued the
existing call to dma_alloc_coherent() in our map_sg_data() function
passes zero for the gfp_flags parameter. We are most definitly in atomic
context at this point as queue_command() is called in softirq context
and further we have a spinlock holding the scsi host lock.

Fix this by passing GFP_ATOMIC to dma_alloc_coherent() to prevent any
sort of sleeping in atomic context deadlock.

Fixes: 4dddbc26c389 ("[SCSI] ibmvscsi: handle large scatter/gather lists")
