Is the only network issue? Is it possible that the network code uses bh_locking to protect against timers? Moveing timers to softirqs would invalidate this sort of protection. Is this an issue?
It is the whole issue. We have to stop all timers while we run the non-SMP safe protocol code. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
