[PATCH 4/4] virtio_net: fix virtnet_send_command() with vdpa_sim_net

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



virtnet_send_command() sends a command to the control virtqueue
by adding the command to the virtqueue, kicking the queue and waiting
in a loop.

The vdpa simulator simulates the control virqueue using a work queue:
the virqueue_kick() calls schedule_work() to start the queue processing.
But as virtnet_send_command() uses a loop, the scheduler cannot schedule
the workqueue and the virtqueue is never processed (and the command
never executed).

To fix that, replace in the loop the cpu_relax() by a schedule().
