Subject: "Dead loop on virtual device" error without softirq-BKL on PREEMPT_RT
Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2026 14:43:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260216134333.412332-1-spasswolf@web.de> (raw)
Starting with linux-6.18, I see the following log messages
2026-02-15T23:50:17.558716+01:00 [ T1559] Dead loop on virtual device wlp4s0, fix it urgently!
2026-02-15T23:50:17.558737+01:00 [ T1559] Dead loop on virtual device wlp4s0, fix it urgently!
[...]
regarding my wireless network device
04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7921K (RZ608) Wi-Fi 6E 80MHz [14c3:0608]
I bisected this (from v6.17 to v6.18) and got this as the first bad commit:
3253cb49cbad ("softirq: Allow to drop the softirq-BKL lock on PREEMPT_RT")
Using CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_NEEDS_BH_LOCK=y in v6.18.10 fixes the issue.
