Subject: Crypto driver callback problem
Context:
We've run into a possible locking issue when using the AMD CCP device for crypto offload, with the new extra tests, and with lock debugging enabled.
Pre-reqs:
Enable the crypto self-tests and extra tests
Build the crypto testing module (tcrypt)
Enable the kernel hacking/lock debugging option
"prove locking correctness" (CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y)
Problem:
After booting this kernel, and loading our ccp-crypto module, run the tests with "modprobe tcrypt" and we get the dmesg output shown following.
With some investigation we discovered that in the situation being reported here, the callback is executed as a tasklet, where we're not allowed to sleep. The called routine began its crypto operation with the MAY_SLEEP flag set, and allocates memory using GFP_KERNEL.
The test itself runs in a typical context, and may sleep; the callback, however, runs as a tasklet yet thinks it can sleep based on the CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP flag set in the request.
Drivers for crypto are required (as we understand it) to use a tasklet approach for callbacks, which is needed (for one example) to support IPSec. (N.B. we did some poking around in other, similar crypto drivers, and all appear to be using tasklets.)
We're looking for the best approach to resolve this. Thoughts?
