The netpoll system currently has a rx to tx path via:
netpoll_rx
__netpoll_rx
arp_reply
netpoll_send_skb
dev->hard_start_tx
This rx->tx loop places network drivers at risk of inadvertently causing a
deadlock or BUG halt by recursively trying to acquire a spinlock that is
used in both their rx and tx paths (this problem was origionally reported
to me in the 3c59x driver, which shares a spinlock between the
boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_xmit routines).
This patch breaks this loop, by queueing arp frames, so that they can be
responded to after all receive operations have been completed. Tested by
myself and the reported with successful results.
Specifically it was tested with netdump. Heres the BZ with details:
