[PATCH 06/11] scsi: isci: port: broadcast change: Pass gfp_t flags

From: Ahmed S. Darwish
Date: Fri Dec 18 2020 - 15:46:08 EST


Use the new libsas event notifiers API, which requires callers to
explicitly pass the gfp_t memory allocation flags.

The libsas ->notify_port_event() hook is called from
isci_port_bc_change_received(). Below is the context analysis for all of
its call chains:

host.c: sci_controller_error_handler(): atomic, irq handler (*)
OR host.c: sci_controller_completion_handler(), atomic, tasklet (*)
-> sci_controller_process_completions()
-> sci_controller_event_completion()
-> phy.c: sci_phy_event_handler()
-> port.c: sci_port_broadcast_change_received()
-> isci_port_bc_change_received()

-> sci_port_clear_phy()
-> phy.c: sci_phy_set_port()

[2A] Call chains for entering SCI state: *SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL*
------------------------------------------------------------

host.c: power_control_timeout(), atomic, timer callback (*)
spin_lock_irqsave(isci_host::scic_lock, )
-> phy.c: sci_phy_consume_power_handler()
-> phy.c: sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL)

-> host.c: sci_controller_power_control_queue_insert()
-> phy.c: sci_phy_consume_power_handler()
-> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL)

As can be seen from the "(*)" markers above, almost all the call-chains
are atomic. The only exception, marked with "(+)", is a PCI ->remove()
and PM_OPS ->suspend() cold path. Thus, pass GFP_ATOMIC to the libsas
port event notifier.

Note, the now-replaced libsas APIs used in_interrupt() to implicitly
decide which memory allocation type to use. This was only partially
correct, as it fails to choose the correct GFP flags when just
preemption or interrupts are disabled. Such buggy code paths are marked
with "(@)" in the call chains above.
