From: Chris Mason Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2014 22:09:24 +0000 (-0400) Subject: mlx4_en: don't use napi_synchronize inside mlx4_en_netpoll X-Git-Tag: v3.14.5~89 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2ad1de98b6fc6c7d04b00506e77b2aa1f7838c01;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-stable.git mlx4_en: don't use napi_synchronize inside mlx4_en_netpoll 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.
