From c6d14c84566d6b70ad9dc1618db0dec87cca9300 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 4 Nov 2009 05:43:23 -0800 Subject: net: Introduce for_each_netdev_rcu() iterator Adds RCU management to the list of netdevices. Convert some for_each_netdev() users to RCU version, if it can avoid read_lock-ing dev_base_lock Ie: read_lock(&dev_base_loack); for_each_netdev(net, dev) some_action(); read_unlock(&dev_base_lock); becomes : rcu_read_lock(); for_each_netdev_rcu(net, dev) some_action(); rcu_read_unlock(); Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
