From 19dbdcb8039cff16669a05136a29180778d16d0a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2019 11:20:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] smp: Warn on function calls from softirq context It's clearly documented that smp function calls cannot be invoked from softirq handling context. Unfortunately nothing enforces that or emits a warning. A single function call can be invoked from softirq context only via smp_call_function_single_async(). The only legit context is task context, so add a warning to that effect.
