This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled can: dev: can_restart(): post buffer from the right context to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: can-dev-can_restart-post-buffer-from-the-right-conte.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 273f51e620f6b5bf07b526519fd2e0fb128e943f Author: Alejandro Concepcion Rodriguez <alejandro@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Nov 5 21:51:47 2020 +0000 can: dev: can_restart(): post buffer from the right context [ Upstream commit a1e654070a60d5d4f7cce59c38f4ca790bb79121 ] netif_rx() is meant to be called from interrupt contexts. can_restart() may be called by can_restart_work(), which is called from a worqueue, so it may run in process context. Use netif_rx_ni() instead.
