[PATCH] i40iw: Add a value assignment to avoid sleep-in-atomic bug caused by uninitialized value

Show all headers | View raw

The value "cqp_request->waiting" indicates whether the sleeping operation 
should be performed, and it is not assigned in i40iw_get_cqp_request, so 
the driver may sleep in interrupt handling. The function call path is:

i40iw_dpc (tasklet_init indicates it handles interrupt)
  i40iw_process_aeq
    i40iw_next_iw_state
      i40iw_hw_modify_qp (call i40iw_get_cqp_request)
        i40iw_handle_cqp_op
          i40iw_wait_event --> may sleep

To fix it, "cqp_request->waiting" is assigned in "else" branch in
i40iw_get_cqp_request.
