This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled arm64: run softirqs on the per-CPU IRQ stack to the 6.0-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: arm64-run-softirqs-on-the-per-cpu-irq-stack.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.0 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 8b72cc663801f6e97e2b8b4ce7d035ad41a7854d Author: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Aug 15 20:47:39 2022 +0800 arm64: run softirqs on the per-CPU IRQ stack [ Upstream commit 8eb858c44b98e0326bb32fca34ae671995cd73bb ] Currently arm64 supports per-CPU IRQ stack, but softirqs are still handled in the task context. Since any call to local_bh_enable() at any level in the task's call stack may trigger a softirq processing run, which could potentially cause a task stack overflow if the combined stack footprints exceed the stack's size, let's run these softirqs on the IRQ stack as well.
