From 14e1d0fa97f821b42e8683500cf4ec817bb5d940 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sorin Dumitru Date: Tue, 26 May 2015 10:42:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] vxlan: release lock after each bucket in vxlan_cleanup We're seeing some softlockups from this function when there are a lot fdb entries on a vxlan device. Taking the lock for each bucket instead of the whole table is enough to fix that. Signed-off-by: Sorin Dumitru Signed-off-by: David S.
