staging: rtl8192u: Fix sleep in atomic context bug in dm_fsync_timer_callback
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.137 commit 028c8632a2dcdc78b0489c19b0ecea3bb26bd4e2 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I60PLB Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=028c8632a2dcdc78b0489c19b0ecea3bb26bd4e2 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 6a0c0549 ] There are sleep in atomic context bugs when dm_fsync_timer_callback is executing. The root cause is that the memory allocation functions with GFP_KERNEL or GFP_NOIO parameters are called in dm_fsync_timer_callback which is a timer handler. The call paths that could trigger bugs are shown below: (interrupt context) dm_fsync_timer_callback write_nic_byte kzalloc(sizeof(data), GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep usb_control_msg kmalloc(.., GFP_NOIO); //may sleep write_nic_dword kzalloc(sizeof(data), GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep usb_control_msg kmalloc(.., GFP_NOIO); //may sleep This patch uses delayed work to replace timer and moves the operations that may sleep into the delayed work in order to mitigate bugs.
