Subject: [PATCH] scsi_debug: illegal blocking memory allocation
Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2007 14:49:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070103134907.GV11203@kernel.dk> (raw)
Hi Doug,
resp_inquiry() does a GFP_KERNEL memory allocation, but it's not allowed
to from the queuecommand context. There's no good way to return this
error, so I used DID_ERROR which is used from similar paths. That
doesn't seem quite right though, it would be better to return an error
indicating a later retry would be more appropriate.
