From: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7325b4bbe5952e3e939f15de812f2ee0c0d33ca9 ] The driver may sleep with holding a spinlock. The function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16 are: [FUNC] nvm_dev_dma_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 754: nvm_dev_dma_alloc in pblk_line_submit_smeta_io drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1048: pblk_line_submit_smeta_io in pblk_line_init_bb drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1434: pblk_line_init_bb in pblk_line_replace_data drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 980: pblk_line_replace_data in pblk_recov_l2p drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 976: spin_lock in pblk_recov_l2p [FUNC] bio_map_kern(GFP_KERNEL) drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 762: bio_map_kern in pblk_line_submit_smeta_io drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1048: pblk_line_submit_smeta_io in pblk_line_init_bb drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1434: pblk_line_init_bb in pblk_line_replace_data drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 980: pblk_line_replace_data in pblk_recov_l2p drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 976: spin_lock in pblk_recov_l2p To fix these bugs, the call to pblk_line_replace_data() is moved out of the spinlock protection. These bugs are found by my static analysis tool DSAC.
