From 53fb95d3c14290fd6ee808b221e35493f096246f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Mackall Date: Thu, 11 Aug 2005 19:27:43 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NETPOLL]: fix initialization/NAPI race This fixes a race during initialization with the NAPI softirq processing by using an RCU approach. This race was discovered when refill_skbs() was added to the setup code. Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall Signed-off-by: David S.
