Subject: [PATCH] xen: Fix two possible sleep-in-atomic-context bugs in create_active()
Date:   Wed, 20 Jun 2018 10:38:46 +0800
Message-Id: <20180620023846.30618-1-baijiaju1990@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The driver may sleep with holding a spinlock.
The function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16.7 are:

[FUNC] __get_free_pages(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c, 351: __get_free_pages in create_active
drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c, 800: create_active in pvcalls_front_accept
drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c, 783: spin_lock in pvcalls_front_accept

[FUNC] __get_free_pages(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c, 347: __get_free_pages in create_active
drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c, 800: create_active in pvcalls_front_accept
drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c, 783: spin_lock in pvcalls_front_accept

To fix these bugs, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.

These bugs are found by my static analysis tool (DSAC-2) and checked by my
code review.
