This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: dsa: xrs700x: Use irqsave variant for u64 stats update to the 5.15-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: net-dsa-xrs700x-use-irqsave-variant-for-u64-stats-up.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit abf4845d4b3d4b6823f09f832fefc3ab5e1d97dc Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 25 13:36:44 2022 +0200 net: dsa: xrs700x: Use irqsave variant for u64 stats update [ Upstream commit 3f8ae9fe0409698799e173f698b714f34570b64b ] xrs700x_read_port_counters() updates the stats from a worker using the u64_stats_update_begin() version. This is okay on 32-UP since on the reader side preemption is disabled. On 32bit-SMP the writer can be preempted by the reader at which point the reader will spin on the seqcount until writer continues and completes the update. Assigning the mib_mutex mutex to the underlying seqcount would ensure proper synchronisation. The API for that on the u64_stats_init() side isn't available. Since it is the only user, just use disable interrupts during the update. Use u64_stats_update_begin_irqsave() on the writer side to ensure an uninterrupted update.
