[PATCH 6.1 140/451] ipv6: mcast: remove one synchronize_net() barrier in ipv6_mc_down()

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

 



From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 17ef8efc00b34918b966388b2af0993811895a8c ]

As discussed in the past (commit 2d3916f31891 ("ipv6: fix skb drops
in igmp6_event_query() and igmp6_event_report()")) I think the
synchronize_net() call in ipv6_mc_down() is not needed.

Under load, synchronize_net() can last between 200 usec and 5 ms.

KASAN seems to agree as well.

Fixes: f185de28d9ae ("mld: add new workqueues for process mld events")
