The driver could possibly sleep while in atomic context resulting in the following call trace while CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y is set: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:283 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 2817, name: bash preempt_count: 1, expected: 0 RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x36/0x50 __might_resched+0x123/0x170 mutex_lock+0x1e/0x50 pds_vfio_put_lm_file+0x1e/0xa0 [pds_vfio_pci] pds_vfio_put_save_file+0x19/0x30 [pds_vfio_pci] pds_vfio_state_mutex_unlock+0x2e/0x80 [pds_vfio_pci] pci_reset_function+0x4b/0x70 reset_store+0x5b/0xa0 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x137/0x1d0 vfs_write+0x2de/0x410 ksys_write+0x5d/0xd0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8 This can happen if pds_vfio_put_restore_file() and/or pds_vfio_put_save_file() grab the mutex_lock(&lm_file->lock) while the spin_lock(&pds_vfio->reset_lock) is held, which can happen during while calling pds_vfio_state_mutex_unlock(). Fix this by using a local state variable to represent the current vfio device state and update all the next state values. Then release the spin_unlock(&pds_vfio->reset_lock) before checking if the current vfio device state is VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_ERROR. Then calling pds_vfio_put_restore_file() and pds_vfio_put_save_file() are no longer being done while holding the reset_lock. The only possible concerns are other threads that may call pds_vfio_put_restore_file(), pds_vfio_put_save_file(), and/or pds_vfio_dirty_disable(). However, those paths are already protected by the state mutex_lock(), which is held in this context.
