From f6e0b239a2657ea8cb67f0d83d0bfdbfd19a481b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jarek Poplawski Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2008 03:24:05 -0700 Subject: pkt_sched: Fix qdisc list locking Since some qdiscs call qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() (so qdisc_lookup()) without rtnl_lock(), adding and deleting from a qdisc list needs additional locking. This patch adds global spinlock qdisc_list_lock and wrapper functions for modifying the list. It is considered as a temporary solution until hfsc_dequeue(), netem_dequeue() and tbf_dequeue() (or qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen()) are redone. With feedback from Herbert Xu and David S. Miller.
