vmxnet3: avoid calling pskb_may_pull with interrupts disabled
vmxnet3 has a function vmxnet3_parse_and_copy_hdr which, among other operations, uses pskb_may_pull to linearize the header portion of an skb. That operation eventually uses local_bh_disable/enable to ensure that it doesn't race with the drivers bottom half handler. Unfortunately, vmxnet3 preforms this parse_and_copy operation with a spinlock held and interrupts disabled. This causes us to run afoul of the WARN_ON_ONCE(irqs_disabled()) warning in local_bh_enable, resulting in this: WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:159 local_bh_enable+0x59/0x90() (Not tainted) Hardware name: VMware Virtual Platform Modules linked in: ipv6 ppdev parport_pc parport microcode e1000 vmware_balloon vmxnet3 i2c_piix4 sg ext4 jbd2 mbcache sd_mod crc_t10dif sr_mod cdrom mptspi mptscsih mptbase scsi_transport_spi pata_acpi ata_generic ata_piix vmwgfx ttm drm_kms_helper drm i2c_core dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [last unloaded: mperf] Pid: 6229, comm: sshd Not tainted 2.6.32-616.el6.i686 #1 Call Trace: [<c04624d9>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x89/0xe0 [<c0469e99>] ? local_bh_enable+0x59/0x90 [<c046254b>] ? warn_slowpath_null+0x1b/0x20 [<c0469e99>] ? local_bh_enable+0x59/0x90 [<c07bb936>] ? skb_copy_bits+0x126/0x210 [<f8d1d9fe>] ? ext4_ext_find_extent+0x24e/0x2d0 [ext4] [<c07bc49e>] ? __pskb_pull_tail+0x6e/0x2b0 [<f95a6164>] ? vmxnet3_xmit_frame+0xba4/0xef0 [vmxnet3] [<c05d15a6>] ? selinux_ip_postroute+0x56/0x320 [<c0615988>] ? cfq_add_rq_rb+0x98/0x110 [<c0852df8>] ? packet_rcv+0x48/0x350 [<c07c5839>] ? dev_queue_xmit_nit+0xc9/0x140 ... Fix it by splitting vmxnet3_parse_and_copy_hdr into two functions: vmxnet3_parse_hdr, which sets up the internal/on stack ctx datastructure, and pulls the skb (both of which can be done without holding the spinlock with irqs disabled and vmxnet3_copy_header, which just copies the skb to the tx ring under the lock safely. tested and shown to correct the described problem.
