Subject: [BUG] 3com/3c59x: two possible sleep-in-atomic bugs
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2017 11:34:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <601d2159-76d7-57ac-9d84-6e33a3352fbe@gmail.com> (raw)

According to drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c59x.c, the kernel module may 
sleep in the interrupt handler.
The function call paths are:
boomerang_interrupt (interrupt handler)
   vortex_error
     vortex_up
       pci_set_power_state --> may sleep
       pci_enable_device --> may sleep

vortex_interrupt (interrupt handler)
   vortex_error
     vortex_up
       pci_set_power_state --> may sleep
       pci_enable_device --> may sleep

I do not find a good way to fix them, so I only report.
These possible bugs are found by my static analysis tool (DSAC) and 
checked by my code review.


Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
