Use the new libsas event notifiers API, which requires callers to explicitly pass the gfp_t memory allocation flags. libsas sas_notify_port_event() is called from isci_port_link_up(). Below is the context analysis for all of its call chains: host.c: isci_host_init() (@) spin_lock_irq(isci_host::scic_lock) -> sci_controller_initialize(), atomic (*) -> port_config.c: sci_port_configuration_agent_initialize() -> sci_mpc_agent_validate_phy_configuration() -> port.c: sci_port_add_phy() -> sci_port_general_link_up_handler() -> sci_port_activate_phy() -> isci_port_link_up() port_config.c: apc_agent_timeout(), atomic, timer callback (*) -> sci_apc_agent_configure_ports() -> port.c: sci_port_add_phy() -> sci_port_general_link_up_handler() -> sci_port_activate_phy() -> isci_port_link_up() phy.c: enter SCI state: *SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL* # Cont. from [1] -> phy.c: sci_phy_starting_final_substate_enter() -> phy.c: sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_READY) -> enter SCI state: *SCI_PHY_READY* -> phy.c: sci_phy_ready_state_enter() -> host.c: sci_controller_link_up() -> .link_up_handler() == port_config.c: sci_apc_agent_link_up() -> port.c: sci_port_link_up() -> (continue at [A]) == port_config.c: sci_mpc_agent_link_up() -> port.c: sci_port_link_up() -> (continue at [A]) port_config.c: mpc_agent_timeout(), atomic, timer callback (*) spin_lock_irqsave(isci_host::scic_lock, ) -> ->link_up_handler() == port_config.c: sci_apc_agent_link_up() -> port.c: sci_port_link_up() -> (continue at [A]) == port_config.c: sci_mpc_agent_link_up() -> port.c: sci_port_link_up() -> (continue at [A]) [A] port.c: sci_port_link_up() -> sci_port_activate_phy() -> isci_port_link_up() -> sci_port_general_link_up_handler() -> sci_port_activate_phy() -> isci_port_link_up() [1] Call chains for entering SCI state: *SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL* ----------------------------------------------------------- host.c: power_control_timeout(), atomic, timer callback (*) spin_lock_irqsave(isci_host::scic_lock, ) -> phy.c: sci_phy_consume_power_handler() -> phy.c: sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL) host.c: sci_controller_error_handler(): atomic, irq handler (*) OR host.c: sci_controller_completion_handler(), atomic, tasklet (*) -> sci_controller_process_completions() -> sci_controller_unsolicited_frame() -> phy.c: sci_phy_frame_handler() -> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_AWAIT_SAS_POWER) -> sci_phy_starting_await_sas_power_substate_enter() -> host.c: sci_controller_power_control_queue_insert() -> phy.c: sci_phy_consume_power_handler() -> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL) -> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL) -> sci_controller_event_completion() -> phy.c: sci_phy_event_handler() -> sci_phy_start_sata_link_training() -> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_AWAIT_SATA_POWER) -> sci_phy_starting_await_sata_power_substate_enter -> host.c: sci_controller_power_control_queue_insert() -> phy.c: sci_phy_consume_power_handler() -> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_SUB_FINAL) As can be seen from the "(*)" markers above, all the call-chains are atomic. Pass GFP_ATOMIC to libsas port event notifier. Note, the now-replaced libsas APIs used in_interrupt() to implicitly decide which memory allocation type to use. This was only partially correct, as it fails to choose the correct GFP flags when just preemption or interrupts are disabled. Such buggy code paths are marked with "(@)" in the call chains above.
