Re: [PATCH] vsock/virtio: use GFP_ATOMIC under RCU read lock

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

 



virtio_transport_send_pkt in now called on transport fast path,
under RCU read lock. In that case, we have a bug: virtio_add_sgs
is called with GFP_KERNEL, and might sleep.

Pass the gfp flags as an argument, and use GFP_ATOMIC on
the fast path.
