Subject: [PATCHv2 net-next 2/4] macvtap: Consistently use rcu functions
Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2013 16:04:20 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1372190662-30815-3-git-send-email-vyasevic@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1372190662-30815-1-git-send-email-vyasevic@redhat.com>
Currently macvtap uses rcu_bh functions in its
user facing fuction macvtap_get_user() and macvtap_put_user().
However, its packet handlers use normal rcu as the rcu_read_lock()
is taken in netif_receive_skb(). We can safely discontinue
the usage or rcu with bh disabled.
