Subject: [BUG] sound/core/seq: A possible sleep-in-atomic bug in snd_virmidi_dev_receive_event
Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2017 10:42:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a3e0863a-c47e-de76-828d-2dcd4b2b18a0@163.com> (raw)

According to seq_virmidi.c, the driver may sleep under a read spinlock.
The function call path is:
snd_virmidi_dev_receive_event (acquire the spinlock)
   snd_seq_dump_var_event
     copy_from_user --> may sleep

This bug is found by my static analysis tool and my code review.


Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
