[PATCH 4.19] smp: Warn on function calls from softirq context

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

 



From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 19dbdcb8039cff16669a05136a29180778d16d0a upstream.

It's clearly documented that smp function calls cannot be invoked from
softirq handling context. Unfortunately nothing enforces that or emits a
warning.

A single function call can be invoked from softirq context only via
smp_call_function_single_async().

The only legit context is task context, so add a warning to that effect.
