[patch 11/14] ACPI: change GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL for non-atomic allocation

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

 



From: Jiri Kosina <jikos@xxxxxxxx>

acpi_pci_link_set() allocates with GFP_ATOMIC. On resume from suspend,
this is called with interrupts off, otherwise GFP_KERNEL is safe.

On the other hand, when resuming from suspend with interrupts off, the
following callchain allocates with GFP_KERNEL, which is wrong:

acpi_pci_link_resume -> acpi_pci_link_set -> acpi_set_current_resources ->
acpi_rs_set_srs_method_data -> acpi_ut_create_internal_object_dbg ->
acpi_ut_allocate_object_desc_dbg -> acpi_os_acquire_object ->
kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) flag.
