[PATCH 3/4] drivers/crypto/ixp4xx_crypto.c: convert GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC

flat view
STALE5388d

From: Julia Lawall <hidden>
Date: 2012-01-09 09:41:21
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: crypto api, the rest · Maintainers: Herbert Xu, "David S. Miller", Linus Torvalds

From: Julia Lawall <redacted>

The function is called with locks held and thus should not use GFP_KERNEL.

The semantic patch that makes this report is available
in scripts/coccinelle/locks/call_kern.cocci.
