[PATCH] infiniband: core: mad: Fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug in ib_mad_recv_done()
From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Sat Sep 01 2018 - 08:07:11 EST
The driver may sleep with holding a spinlock.
The function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16 are:
[FUNC] alloc_mad_private(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/infiniband/core/mad.c, 2264:
alloc_mad_private in ib_mad_recv_done
drivers/infiniband/core/cq.c, 45:
[FUNC_PTR]ib_mad_recv_done in __ib_process_cq
drivers/infiniband/core/cq.c, 77:
__ib_process_cq in ib_process_cq_direct
drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c, 2010:
ib_process_cq_direct in __srp_get_tx_iu
drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c, 2353:
__srp_get_tx_iu in srp_queuecommand
drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c, 2352:
_raw_spin_lock_irqsave in srp_queuecommand
[FUNC] alloc_mad_private(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/infiniband/core/mad.c, 2264:
alloc_mad_private in ib_mad_recv_done
drivers/infiniband/core/cq.c, 45:
[FUNC_PTR]ib_mad_recv_done in __ib_process_cq
drivers/infiniband/core/cq.c, 77:
__ib_process_cq in ib_process_cq_direct
drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c, 2010:
ib_process_cq_direct in __srp_get_tx_iu
drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c, 2903:
__srp_get_tx_iu in srp_send_tsk_mgmt
drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c, 2902:
spin_lock_irq in srp_send_tsk_mgmt
To fix this bug, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.
This bug is found by my static analysis tool DSAC.
