This is always called with spinlocks held so it should use GFP_ATOMIC. The call tree is: -> bfad_drv_start() Takes spin_lock_irqsave(&bfad->bfad_lock, flags); -> bfa_fcs_pbc_vport_init() -> bfa_fcb_pbc_vport_create() Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> diff --git a/drivers/scsi/bfa/bfad.c b/drivers/scsi/bfa/bfad.c index a5f7690..d144a06 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/bfa/bfad.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/bfa/bfad.c @@ -491,7 +491,7 @@ bfa_fcb_pbc_vport_create(struct bfad_s *bfad, struct bfi_pbc_vport_s pbc_vport) struct bfad_vport_s *vport; int rc; - vport = kzalloc(sizeof(struct bfad_vport_s), GFP_KERNEL); + vport = kzalloc(sizeof(struct bfad_vport_s), GFP_ATOMIC); if (!vport) { bfa_trc(bfad, 0); return; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
