Subject: [PATCH net 5/6] netfilter: nf_tables: avoid softlockup warnings in nft_chain_validate
Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2025 20:09:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251216190904.14507-6-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251216190904.14507-1-fw@strlen.de>
This reverts commit
314c82841602 ("netfilter: nf_tables: can't schedule in nft_chain_validate"):
Since commit a60a5abe19d6 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow iter callbacks to sleep")
the iterator callback is invoked without rcu read lock held, so this
cond_resched() is now valid.
Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
