[PATCH 05/20] wifi: iwlwifi: pull from TXQs with softirqs disabled

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

In mac80211, it's required that we pull from TXQs by calling
ieee80211_tx_dequeue() only with softirqs disabled. However,
in iwl_mvm_queue_state_change() we're often called with them
enabled, e.g. from flush if anything was flushed, triggering
a mac80211 warning.

Fix that by disabling the softirqs across the TX call.
