crypto: shash - Fix a sleep-in-atomic bug in shash_setkey_unaligned
The SCTP program may sleep under a spinlock, and the function call path is: sctp_generate_t3_rtx_event (acquire the spinlock) sctp_do_sm sctp_side_effects sctp_cmd_interpreter sctp_make_init_ack sctp_pack_cookie crypto_shash_setkey shash_setkey_unaligned kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) For the same reason, the orinoco driver may sleep in interrupt handler, and the function call path is: orinoco_rx_isr_tasklet orinoco_rx orinoco_mic crypto_shash_setkey shash_setkey_unaligned kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) To fix it, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC. This bug is found by my static analysis tool and my code review. Signed-off-by: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@163.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
