[PATCH] scsi_lib.c: sleeping function called from invalid context

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

 



Driver scsi_lib.c might sleep in atomic context, because it calls 
scsi_device_put under spin_lock_irqsave.
drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:356:
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? spin_lock_irqsave(shost->host_lock, flags);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? scsi_device_put(sdev);
Path to might_sleep macro from scsi_device_put:
1. scsi_device_put calls put_device at ./drivers/scsi/scsi.c:1111 
2. put_device calls kobject_put at ./drivers/base/core.c:1038 
3. kobject_put calls kref_put at ./lib/kobject.c
4. kref_put may call callback function kobject_release at ./lib/kref.c if 
refcount becomes zero, which might_sleep because it calls user event. Details:
????????4.1 kobject_cleanup calls kobject_uevent at ./lib/kobject.c:555
????????4.2 kobject_uevent calls kobject_uevent_env at 
./lib/kobject_uevent.c:282
????????4.3 kobject_uevent_env calls call_usermodehelper_exec at 
include/linux/kmod.h:83
????????4.4 call_usermodehelper_exec calls wait_for_completion at 
./kernel/kmod.c:481
????????4.5 wait_for_completion calls wait_for_common at ./kernel/sched.c:5710
????????4.5 wait_for_common calls might_sleep at ./kernels/sched.c:5692

Delete wrong sleeping function calls.
