The return value is used as bool, so why not return a bool?

The return value > is used as bool, so why not return a bool? This is a leftover of a prior implementation that returned 3 values. No bug here really, this is a matter of taste I suppose.

napi_disable() is subject to an hangup, when the threaded mode is enabled and the napi is under heavy traffic. If the relevant napi has been scheduled and the napi_disable() kicks in before the next napi_threaded_wait() completes - so that the latter quits due to the napi_disable_pending() condition, the existing code leaves the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit set and the napi_disable() loop waiting for such bit will hang. This patch addresses the issue by dropping the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit test in napi_thread_wait(). The later napi_threaded_poll() iteration will take care of clearing the NAPI_STATE_SCHED. This also addresses a related problem reported by Jakub: before this patch a napi_disable()/napi_enable() pair killed the napi thread, effectively disabling the threaded mode. On the patched kernel napi_disable() simply stops scheduling the relevant thread. v1 -> v2: - let the main napi_thread_poll() loop clear the SCHED bit Reported-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Fixes: 29863d41bb6e ("net: implement threaded-able napi poll loop support") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> --- net/core/dev.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
