From: Duoming Zhou <duoming@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b89fc26f741d9f9efb51cba3e9b241cf1380ec5a ] There are sleep in atomic context bugs in timer handlers of sctp such as sctp_generate_t3_rtx_event(), sctp_generate_probe_event(), sctp_generate_t1_init_event(), sctp_generate_timeout_event(), sctp_generate_t3_rtx_event() and so on. The root cause is sctp_sched_prio_init_sid() with GFP_KERNEL parameter that may sleep could be called by different timer handlers which is in interrupt context. One of the call paths that could trigger bug is shown below: (interrupt context) sctp_generate_probe_event sctp_do_sm sctp_side_effects sctp_cmd_interpreter sctp_outq_teardown sctp_outq_init sctp_sched_set_sched n->init_sid(..,GFP_KERNEL) sctp_sched_prio_init_sid //may sleep This patch changes gfp_t parameter of init_sid in sctp_sched_set_sched() from GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC in order to prevent sleep in atomic context bugs.
