In fact, the thread is most likely NOT in RUNNING mode before we call wake_up_process() in ____napi_schedule(), because it has finished the previous round of napi->poll() and SCHED bit was cleared, so napi_thread_wait() sets the state to INTERRUPTIBLE and schedule() call should already put it in sleep.

If it is the first time napi_threaded_wait() is called, and SCHED_THREADED is not set, and woken is not set either, this thread will be put to sleep when it reaches schedule(), even though there is work waiting to be done on that napi. And I think this kthread will not be woken up again afterwards, since the SCHED bit is already grabbed.

We can switch the check in ____napi_schedule() from if (thread->state == TASK_RUNNING) to if (!(thread->state & TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)) ?

Hmm... I am not very sure what state the thread will be put in after kthread_create(). Could it be in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE?

I am not very sure what state the thread will be put in after > kthread_create(). Could it be in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE? I did a printk and confirmed that the thread->state is TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE after kthread_create() is called. So I think if we change the above state to: if (thread->state != TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) set_bit(NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED, &napi->state); It should work.

To me, the logic here seems more complicated than the original v2 patch, but it helps save quite some set_bit() in ____napi_schedule(). So it may be worthwhile?

I think so. kthread_run() wakes up the kthread and kthread_wait_poll() should put it to INTERRUPTIBLE mode and schedule() will make it go to sleep, and wait for the next napi_schedule(). I've also tested on my setup and saw no issues.

Currently, napi_thread_wait() checks for NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit to determine if the kthread owns this napi and could call napi->poll() on it. However, if socket busy poll is enabled, it is possible that the busy poll thread grabs this SCHED bit (after the previous napi->poll() invokes napi_complete_done() and clears SCHED bit) and tries to poll on the same napi. napi_disable() could grab the SCHED bit as well. This patch tries to fix this race by adding a new bit NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED in napi->state. This bit gets set in ____napi_schedule() if the threaded mode is enabled, and gets cleared in napi_complete_done(), and we only poll the napi in kthread if this bit is set. This helps distinguish the ownership of the napi between kthread and other scenarios and fixes the race issue.
