Subject: [PATCH] [IPV4] route: fix locking in rt_run_flush()
Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2008 00:08:57 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <12009281372201-git-send-email-joonwpark81@gmail.com> (raw)

The rt_run_flush() can be stucked if it was called while netdev is on the 
high load.
It's possible when pushing rtable to rt_hash is faster than pulling
from it.

The commands 'ifconfig up or ifconfig mtu' and netif_carrier_on() can
introduce soft lockup like this:

[  363.528001] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 11s! [events/0:9]

This patch makes rt_run_flush() to run with softirq is disabled.
