[PATCH] dm: use noio when sending kobject event

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



kobject_uevent may allocate memory and it may be called while there are dm
devices suspended. The allocation may recurse into a suspended device,
causing a deadlock. We must set the noio flag when sending a uevent.

This is the observed deadlock:
