Hello everybody,
I require to call a function (ip_forward) that is a part of
the net bottom half from the callback handler of
a netlink device. But, if my understanding is right,
this might lead to reentrancy of the bottom half due to, say,
a network interrupt,
which should not happen. To avoid this is it enough if I
enclose the call with primitives start_bh_atomic()/end_bh_atomic() which
increment/decrement the intr_count variable?
Thanks a lot
gopi
