From c9160b69258ef46ab62c27a09decb8fef311e700 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jia-Ju Bai Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2018 21:17:54 +0800 Subject: ntb: ntb_transport: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in ntb_transport_create_queue ntb_transport_create_queue() is never called in atomic context. ntb_transport_create_queue() is only called by ntb_netdev_probe(), which is set as ".probe" in struct ntb_transport_client. Despite never getting called from atomic context, ntb_transport_create_queue() calls kzalloc_node() with GFP_ATOMIC, which does not sleep for allocation. GFP_ATOMIC is not necessary and can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL, which can sleep and improve the possibility of sucessful allocation. This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
