When there are heavy load, cpumap kernel threads can be busy polling packets from redirect queues and block out RCU tasks from reaching quiescent states. It is insufficient to just call cond_resched() in such context. Periodically raise a consolidated RCU QS before cond_resched fixes the problem.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the ReStructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
