> This patch should have been part of the previous patch having the > same summary. See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=143039470103795&w=2 > Unfortunately, I didn't check to see where else this lock was used before > submitting that patch. This should take care of it for netxen_nic, as I > did a thorough search this time. > > To recap from the original patch; although testing this driver with > DEBUG_LOCKDEP and DEBUG_SPINLOCK enabled did not produce any traces, > it would be more prudent in the case of tx_clean_lock to use _bh > versions of spin_[un]lock, since this lock is manipulated in both > the process and softirq contexts. > > This patch was tested for functionality and regressions with netperf > and DEBUG_LOCKDEP and DEBUG_SPINLOCK enabled. > > Signed-off-by: Tony Camuso <tcam...@redhat.com> Applied, thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
