Author: ken Date: Mon Jun 26 15:23:12 2017 New Revision: 320361 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/320361 Log: MFC r320123: Fix a potential sleep while holding a mutex in the sa(4) driver. If the user issues a MTIOCEXTGET ioctl, and the tape drive in question has a serial number that is longer than 80 characters, we malloc a buffer in saextget() to hold the output of cam_strvis(). Since a mutex is held in that codepath, doing a M_WAITOK malloc could lead to sleeping while holding a mutex. Change it to a M_NOWAIT malloc and bail out if we fail to allocate the memory. Devices with serial numbers longer than 80 bytes are very rare (I don't recall seeing one), so this should be a very unusual case to hit. But it is a bug that should be fixed. sys/cam/scsi/scsi_sa.c: In saextget(), if we need to malloc a buffer to hold the output of cam_strvis(), don't wait for the memory. Fail and return an error if we can't allocate the memory immediately.
