[PATCH 2/2] NTB: epf: Avoid pci_irq_vector() from hardirq context
From: Koichiro Den
Date: Wed Mar 04 2026 - 03:32:33 EST
ntb_epf_vec_isr() calls pci_irq_vector() in hardirq context to derive
the vector number. pci_irq_vector() calls msi_get_virq() that takes a
mutex and can therefore trigger "scheduling while atomic" splats.
BUG: scheduling while atomic: kworker/u33:0/55/0x00010001
...
Call trace:
...
schedule+0x38/0x110
schedule_preempt_disabled+0x28/0x50
__mutex_lock.constprop.0+0x848/0x908
__mutex_lock_slowpath+0x18/0x30

pci_irq_vector+0x2c/0x60

__handle_irq_event_percpu+0x70/0x3a8
handle_irq_event+0x48/0x100
handle_edge_irq+0x100/0x1c8
...
Cache the Linux IRQ number for vector 0 when vectors are allocated and
use it as a base in the ISR. Running the ISR in a threaded IRQ handler
would also avoid the problem, but that would be unnecessary here.
