From 9039f3ef446e9ffa200200c934f049add9e58426 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jia-Ju Bai Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2017 10:25:22 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: shash - Fix a sleep-in-atomic bug in shash_setkey_unaligned The SCTP program may sleep under a spinlock, and the function call path is: sctp_generate_t3_rtx_event (acquire the spinlock) sctp_do_sm sctp_side_effects sctp_cmd_interpreter sctp_make_init_ack sctp_pack_cookie crypto_shash_setkey shash_setkey_unaligned kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) For the same reason, the orinoco driver may sleep in interrupt handler, and the function call path is: orinoco_rx_isr_tasklet orinoco_rx orinoco_mic crypto_shash_setkey shash_setkey_unaligned kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) To fix it, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC. This bug is found by my static analysis tool and my code review.
