This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tsnep: Fix NAPI scheduling to the 6.5-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: tsnep-fix-napi-scheduling.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.5 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit b6317167aee29122d2c8972cb8479019e6e16e73 Author: Gerhard Engleder <gerhard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Sep 15 23:01:24 2023 +0200 tsnep: Fix NAPI scheduling [ Upstream commit ea852c17f5382a0a52041cfbd9a4451ae0fa1a38 ] According to the NAPI documentation networking/napi.rst, drivers which have to mask interrupts explicitly should use the napi_schedule_prep() and __napi_schedule() calls. No problem seen so far with current implementation. Nevertheless, let's align the implementation with documentation.
