Hi Christoph,

I'm seeing an issue which was bisected down to 3c356bde1 ("scsi: stop passing
a gfp_mask argument down the command setup path"):

Looks interesting: vfs injecting SCSI commands with iovec
through the sg driver's async interface.


The problem seems to be here in scsi_lib.c, mq=true:

static int scsi_alloc_sgtable(struct scsi_data_buffer *sdb, int nents, bool mq)
{
        struct scatterlist *first_chunk = NULL;
        gfp_t gfp_mask = mq ? GFP_NOIO : GFP_ATOMIC;
        int ret;
...

What is the downside of setting gfp_mask to GFP_ATOMIC
in all cases?
