From d5789621b658369b21bd13446bab8102cf75df65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2021 18:06:04 +0200 Subject: nfp: Remove rcu_read_lock() around XDP program invocation MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The nfp driver has rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs around XDP program invocations. However, the actual lifetime of the objects referred by the XDP program invocation is longer, all the way through to the call to xdp_do_flush(), making the scope of the rcu_read_lock() too small. While this is not actually an issue for the nfp driver because it doesn't support XDP_REDIRECT (and thus doesn't call xdp_do_flush()), the rcu_read_lock() is still unneeded. And With the addition of RCU annotations to the XDP_REDIRECT map types that take bh execution into account, lockdep even understands this to be safe, so there's really no reason to keep it around.
