Unfortunately, when +running with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL, this interrupt handler is run as a +thread and is preemptable. The call to ____napi_schedule() must be done +with interrupts disabled to protect the per cpu softnet_data's +"poll_list, which is protected by disabling interrupts (disabling +preemption is enough when all interrupts are threaded and +local_bh_disable() can't preempt)." + +As bnx2x isn't the only driver that does this, the safest thing to do +is to make __napi_schedule_irqoff() call __napi_schedule() instead when +CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL is enabled, which will call local_irq_save() +before calling ____napi_schedule(). + +Cc: stable-rt@vger.kernel.org +Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) <rostedt@goodmis.org> +Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> +--- + include/linux/netdevice.h | 12 ++++++++++++ + net/core/dev.c | 2 ++ + 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+) + +diff --git a/include/linux/netdevice.h b/include/linux/netdevice.h +index dfec34087039..c4713217b20e 100644 +--- a/include/linux/netdevice.h ++++ b/include/linux/netdevice.h +@@ -423,7 +423,19 @@ typedef enum rx_handler_result rx_handler_result_t; + typedef rx_handler_result_t rx_handler_func_t(struct sk_buff **pskb); + + void __napi_schedule(struct napi_struct *n); ++ ++/* ++ * When PREEMPT_RT_FULL is defined, all device interrupt handlers ++ * run as threads, and they can also be preempted (without PREEMPT_RT ++ * interrupt threads can not be preempted).
