Subject: [PATCH net-next] r8152: use GFP_NOIO during system suspend
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 14:57:41 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810065741.4019-1-nic_swsd@realtek.com> (raw)
During system suspend, memory allocation with GFP_KERNEL can block
waiting for I/O to complete. If that I/O depends on a device that is
itself suspended, a deadlock results.
Introduce RTL8152_SYSTEM_SUSPEND flag to track when the driver is
operating in the system suspend/resume context. Set the flag at the
start of rtl8152_system_suspend() and clear it at the end of
rtl8152_system_resume(), following the same pattern used by
SELECTIVE_SUSPEND for runtime suspend.
In get_registers() and set_registers(), select GFP_NOIO when the flag
is set so that the kmalloc and kmemdup calls in those paths do not
trigger I/O reclaim.
