From fa45d484c52c73f79db2c23b0cdfc6c6455093ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuniyuki Iwashima Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2022 10:46:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: Fix a data-race around netdev_budget_usecs. While reading netdev_budget_usecs, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader. Fixes: 7acf8a1e8a28 ("Replace 2 jiffies with sysctl netdev_budget_usecs to enable softirq tuning") Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima Signed-off-by: David S.
