Darwish <a.darwish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jan 18 11:09:43 2021 +0100 scsi: isci: Pass gfp_t flags in isci_port_bc_change_received() [ Upstream commit 71dca5539fcf977aead0c9ea1962e70e78484b8e ] 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_bc_change_received(). Below is the context analysis for all of its call chains: host.c: sci_controller_error_handler(): atomic, irq handler (*) OR host.c: sci_controller_completion_handler(), atomic, tasklet (*) -> sci_controller_process_completions() -> sci_controller_event_completion() -> phy.c: sci_phy_event_handler() -> port.c: sci_port_broadcast_change_received() -> isci_port_bc_change_received() 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_set_phy() -> phy.c: sci_phy_set_port() -> port.c: sci_port_broadcast_change_received() -> isci_port_bc_change_received() port_config.c: apc_agent_timeout(), atomic, timer callback (*) -> sci_apc_agent_configure_ports() -> port.c: sci_port_add_phy() -> sci_port_set_phy() -> phy.c: sci_phy_set_port() -> port.c: sci_port_broadcast_change_received() -> isci_port_bc_change_received() phy.c: enter SCI state: *SCI_PHY_STOPPED* #

The only exception, marked with "(+)", is a PCI ->remove() and PM_OPS ->suspend() cold path. Thus, pass GFP_ATOMIC to the 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.
