Hi Jia-Ju, Your checker has been looking at fallback implementation for the might-sleep hid_alloc_report_buf(GFP_KERNEL). Did you have a look at the low-lever bus-driver implementations: hdev->ll_driver->request ^^^^^^^ Are those all sleeping as well or maybe they don't sleep? I will have a look over the coming days.
