Date: Sun, 2 Oct 2022 12:07:09 +0800 From: Duoming Zhou <duoming@....edu.cn> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: gregkh@...uxfoundation.org, jirislaby@...nel.org, Duoming Zhou <duoming@....edu.cn> Subject: [PATCH] tty: n_gsm: fix sleep-in-atomic-context bug in gsm_control_send The function gsm_dlci_t1() is a timer handler that runs in an atomic context, but it calls "kzalloc(..., GFP_KERNEL)" that may sleep. As a result, the sleep-in-atomic-context bug will happen. The process is shown below: gsm_dlci_t1() gsm_dlci_open() gsm_modem_update() gsm_modem_upd_via_msc() gsm_control_send() kzalloc(sizeof(.., GFP_KERNEL) //may sleep This patch changes the gfp_t parameter of kzalloc() from GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC in order to mitigate the bug.
