This patch applies the introduced memalloc_noio_save() and memalloc_noio_restore() to force memory allocation with no I/O during runtime_resume/runtime_suspend callback on device with the flag of 'memalloc_noio' set. Cc: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxx> Cc: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- v7: - move memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore into rpm_callback to avoid code duplication, as suggested by Rafael v5: - use inline memalloc_noio_save() v4: - runtime_suspend need this too because rpm_resume may wait for completion of concurrent runtime_suspend, so deadlock still may be triggered in runtime_suspend path. --- drivers/base/power/runtime.c | 19 ++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/base/power/runtime.c b/drivers/base/power/runtime.c index cd92e1c..1244930 100644 --- a/drivers/base/power/runtime.c +++ b/drivers/base/power/runtime.c @@ -348,7 +348,24 @@ static int rpm_callback(int (*cb)(struct device *), struct device *dev) if (!cb) return -ENOSYS; - retval = __rpm_callback(cb, dev); + if (dev->power.memalloc_noio) { + unsigned int noio_flag; + + /* + * Deadlock might be caused if memory allocation with + * GFP_KERNEL happens inside runtime_suspend and + * runtime_resume callbacks of one block device's + * ancestor or the block device itself.
