[PATCH] klist: Make it safe to use klists in atomic context

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

 



In the scsi_transport_srp implementation it cannot be avoided to
iterate over a klist from atomic context when using the legacy
block layer instead of blk-mq. Hence this patch that makes it safe
to use klists in atomic context. This patch avoids that lockdep
reports the following:

WARNING: SOFTIRQ-safe -> SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order detected
 Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&(&k->k_lock)->rlock);
                               local_irq_disable();
                               lock(&(&q->__queue_lock)->rlock);
                               lock(&(&k->k_lock)->rlock);
  <Interrupt>
    lock(&(&q->__queue_lock)->rlock);
