I am afraid you have to add a spinlock somewhere to serialized free_old_xmit_skbs() vs. vring_del_virtqueue(). As you can see they are in different layers, so it is hard to figure out where to add it... Also, make sure we don't sleep inside the spinlock, I see a synchronize_net(). _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
