So we should always use > netif_rx_ni(skb), right? Right, I think that currently it is as you say. However, it seems that can_restart_now() has public visibility (/linux/can/dev.h), and even though it doesn't seem to be used by other CAN drivers for now, I guess it could potentially be used in future. netif_rx_any_context() should avoid issues if can_restart_now() is called from an ISR later. > >> --- >> drivers/net/can/dev.c | 2 +- >> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/net/can/dev.c b/drivers/net/can/dev.c >> index b70ded3760f2..83114f8e8c24 100644 >> --- a/drivers/net/can/dev.c >> +++ b/drivers/net/can/dev.c >> @@ -584,7 +584,7 @@ static void can_restart(struct net_device *dev) >> >> cf->can_id |= CAN_ERR_RESTARTED; >> >> - netif_rx(skb); >> + netif_rx_any_context(skb); >> >> stats->rx_packets++; >> stats->rx_bytes += cf->can_dlc; >> > Marc > BR, Alejandro
