Subject: [PATCH 6.6 0/2] fix do_softirq_post_smp_call_flush warnings caused by NET_RX_SOFTIRQ
Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2025 15:53:15 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1766987153.git.wen.yang@linux.dev> (raw)
From: Wen Yang <wen.yang@linux.dev>
do_softirq_post_smp_call_flush() on PREEMPT_RT kernels carries a
WARN_ON_ONCE() for any SOFTIRQ being raised from an SMP-call-function.
Since do_softirq_post_smp_call_flush() is called with preempt disabled,
raising a SOFTIRQ during flush_smp_call_function_queue() can lead to
longer preempt disabled sections.
RPS distributes network processing load across CPUs by enqueuing
packets on a remote CPU's backlog and raising NET_RX_SOFTIRQ to
process them.
The following patches fixes this issue.
Sebastian Andrzej Siewior (2):
net: Remove conditional threaded-NAPI wakeup based on task state.
net: Allow to use SMP threads for backlog NAPI.
