[PATCH net v3] netdev-genl: Hold rcu_read_lock in napi_get

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

 



Hold rcu_read_lock in netdev_nl_napi_get_doit, which calls napi_by_id
and is required to be called under rcu_read_lock.

 v3:
   - Separate the patches that were a series in v2 (and earlier) as
     they target different trees.

 v2:
   - Simplified by removing the helper and calling rcu_read_lock /
     unlock directly instead.
