[ Upstream commit 7325b4bbe5952e3e939f15de812f2ee0c0d33ca9 ] The driver may sleep with holding a spinlock. The function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16 are: [FUNC] nvm_dev_dma_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 754: nvm_dev_dma_alloc in pblk_line_submit_smeta_io drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1048: pblk_line_submit_smeta_io in pblk_line_init_bb drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1434: pblk_line_init_bb in pblk_line_replace_data drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 980: pblk_line_replace_data in pblk_recov_l2p drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 976: spin_lock in pblk_recov_l2p [FUNC] bio_map_kern(GFP_KERNEL) drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 762: bio_map_kern in pblk_line_submit_smeta_io drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1048: pblk_line_submit_smeta_io in pblk_line_init_bb drivers/lightnvm/pblk-core.c, 1434: pblk_line_init_bb in pblk_line_replace_data drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 980: pblk_line_replace_data in pblk_recov_l2p drivers/lightnvm/pblk-recovery.c, 976: spin_lock in pblk_recov_l2p To fix these bugs, the call to pblk_line_replace_data() is moved out of the spinlock protection. These bugs are found by my static analysis tool DSAC.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
