Message-Id: <20221123100642.6922-1-duoming@zju.edu.cn> Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2022 18:06:42 +0800 From: Duoming Zhou <duoming@....edu.cn> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: shshaikh@...vell.com, manishc@...vell.com, GR-Linux-NIC-Dev@...vell.com, davem@...emloft.net, edumazet@...gle.com, kuba@...nel.org, pabeni@...hat.com, netdev@...r.kernel.org, Duoming Zhou <duoming@....edu.cn> Subject: [PATCH net] qlcnic: fix sleep-in-atomic-context bugs caused by msleep The watchdog timer is used to monitor whether the process of transmitting data is timeout. If we use qlcnic driver, the dev_watchdog() that is the timer handler of watchdog timer will call qlcnic_tx_timeout() to process the timeout. But the qlcnic_tx_timeout() calls msleep(), as a result, the sleep-in-atomic-context bugs will happen. The processes are shown below: (atomic context) dev_watchdog qlcnic_tx_timeout qlcnic_83xx_idc_request_reset qlcnic_83xx_lock_driver msleep --------------------------- (atomic context) dev_watchdog qlcnic_tx_timeout qlcnic_83xx_idc_request_reset qlcnic_83xx_lock_driver qlcnic_83xx_recover_driver_lock msleep Fix by changing msleep() to mdelay(), the mdelay() is busy-waiting and the bugs could be mitigated.
