You can't call into the networking packet input path from hardware interrupt context, it simply is not allowed.
And that's the context in which netif_rx() gets called. That is why netif_rx() just queues, and schedules a software interrupt in which the netif_receive_skb() call gets made. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
