[2.6.25-rc1] Locks in udp_recvmsg()?

Hello. I found that udp_recvmsg() in net/ipv4/udp.c for 2.6.25-rc1 calls lock_sock() only when it releases the datagram (i.e. out_free: and csum_copy_err:). Is it correct to call __skb_recv_datagram() without calling lock_sock() when it acquires the datagram (i.e. try_again:)? Regards. -- To uns

Hi Jarek, Sorry, I should have been more explicit about the patches I applied. My CPU is an Intel Core 2 duo and I compiled 2.6.24 with SMP option. I applied 3 patches you have submitted for ax25 before I observed the possible locking. That is : mkiss patch diff --git a/drivers/net/hamradio

Re: [patch 2.6.24-git] net/enc28j60: low power mode

Keep enc28j60 chips in low-power mode when they're not in use. At typically 120 mA, these chips run hot even when idle; this low power mode cuts that power usage by a factor of around 100. This version provides a generic routine to poll a register until its masked value equals some value ... e.g.

[RFC, PATCH]: Pass link level header from/to PPP interface

The PPP interface strips off the PPP header from the packet before passing it up with netif_rx(). On the xmit path, it has to add the PPP header itself because dev->header_ops is NULL. This means that a PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW socket can't get the link level header and has to use the sll_protocol fie
