[ Upstream commit 622d13694b5f048c01caa7ba548498d9880d4cb0 ] xdp_return_frame() may be called outside of NAPI context to return xdpf back to page_pool. xdp_return_frame() calls __xdp_return() with napi_direct = false. For page_pool memory model, __xdp_return() calls xdp_return_frame_no_direct() unconditionally and below false negative kernel BUG throw happened under preempt-rt build: [ 430.450355] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: modprobe/3884 [ 430.451678] caller is __xdp_return+0x1ff/0x2e0 [ 430.452111] CPU: 0 PID: 3884 Comm: modprobe Tainted: G U E 5.12.0-rc2+ #45 Changes in v2: - This patch fixes the issue by making xdp_return_frame_no_direct() is only called if napi_direct = true, as recommended for better by Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

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.
