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

 



3.6.11.1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 386de15c3f62bf100b4e162c0a859785d2d58661 ]

When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a
ratelimit warning

NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08

for 10 times.

This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has
to be used from process/softirq context.
The process/softirq context will be called from fakelb driver.

See linux-kernel commit 481a819 for similar fix.
