Subject: [PATCH 3.2 06/34] mlx4_en: don't use napi_synchronize inside mlx4_en_netpoll
Date: Fri, 16 May 2014 13:47:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <lsq.1400244441.324282050@decadent.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <lsq.1400244440.390103756@decadent.org.uk>
3.2.59-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>
commit c98235cb8584a72e95786e17d695a8e5fafcd766 upstream.
The mlx4 driver is triggering schedules while atomic inside
mlx4_en_netpoll:
spin_lock_irqsave(&cq->lock, flags);
napi_synchronize(&cq->napi);
^^^^^ msleep here
mlx4_en_process_rx_cq(dev, cq, 0);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&cq->lock, flags);
This was part of a patch by Alexander Guller from Mellanox in 2011,
but it still isn't upstream.
