CVE-2024-56589

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: hisisas: Add condresched() for no forced preemption model

For no forced preemption model kernel, in the scenario where the expander is connected to 12 high performance SAS SSDs, the following call trace may occur:

This is because in the hisisas driver, both the hardware interrupt handler and the interrupt thread are executed on the same CPU. In the performance test scenario, function irqwaitforinterrupt() will always return 0 if lots of interrupts occurs and the CPU will be continuously consumed. As a result, the CPU cannot run the watchdog thread. When the watchdog time exceeds the specified time, call trace occurs.

To fix it, add cond_resched() to execute the watchdog thread.
