sctp: avoid running the sctp state machine recursively Ying triggered a call trace when doing an asconf testing: BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/12/0/0x10000100 Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffffa4375904>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b [<ffffffffa436fcaf>] __schedule_bug+0x64/0x72 [<ffffffffa437b93a>] __schedule+0x9ba/0xa00 [<ffffffffa3cd5326>] __cond_resched+0x26/0x30 [<ffffffffa437bc4a>] _cond_resched+0x3a/0x50 [<ffffffffa3e22be8>] kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x38/0x200 [<ffffffffa423512d>] __alloc_skb+0x5d/0x2d0 [<ffffffffc0995320>] sctp_packet_transmit+0x610/0xa20 [sctp] [<ffffffffc098510e>] sctp_outq_flush+0x2ce/0xc00 [sctp] [<ffffffffc098646c>] sctp_outq_uncork+0x1c/0x20 [sctp] [<ffffffffc0977338>] sctp_cmd_interpreter.isra.22+0xc8/0x1460 [sctp] [<ffffffffc0976ad1>] sctp_do_sm+0xe1/0x350 [sctp] [<ffffffffc099443d>] sctp_primitive_ASCONF+0x3d/0x50 [sctp] [<ffffffffc0977384>] sctp_cmd_interpreter.isra.22+0x114/0x1460 [sctp] [<ffffffffc0976ad1>] sctp_do_sm+0xe1/0x350 [sctp] [<ffffffffc097b3a4>] sctp_assoc_bh_rcv+0xf4/0x1b0 [sctp] [<ffffffffc09840f1>] sctp_inq_push+0x51/0x70 [sctp] [<ffffffffc099732b>] sctp_rcv+0xa8b/0xbd0 [sctp] As it shows, the first sctp_do_sm() running under atomic context (NET_RX softirq) invoked sctp_primitive_ASCONF() that uses GFP_KERNEL flag later, and this flag is supposed to be used in non-atomic context only. Besides, sctp_do_sm() was called recursively, which is not expected. Vlad tried to fix this recursive call in Commit c0786693404c ("sctp: Fix oops when sending queued ASCONF chunks") by introducing a new command SCTP_CMD_SEND_NEXT_ASCONF. But it didn't work as this command is still used in the first sctp_do_sm() call, and sctp_primitive_ASCONF() will be called in this command again. To avoid calling sctp_do_sm() recursively, we send the next queued ASCONF not by sctp_primitive_ASCONF(), but by sctp_sf_do_prm_asconf() in the 1st sctp_do_sm() directly.
