The driver may sleep under a mutex, and the function call path in file
"sys/cam/scsi/scsi_sa.c" in FreeBSD 11.0 is:
saioctl [line 1680: acquire the mutex]
saextget [line 1683]
malloc(M_WAITOK) [line 4444] --> may sleep
The possible fix of this bug is to replace "M_WAITOK" in malloc with
"M_NOWAIT".
This bug is found by a static analysis tool written by myself, and it is
checked by my review of the FreeBSD code.
Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
