[PATCH net] cxgb4/ch_ktls: disable softirqs around tid_list erases

From: Sang-Hoon Choi <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-29 17:37:44

chcr_ktls_cpl_act_open_rpl() inserts into tid_list from the receive path
using xa_insert_bh().  The array is shared by the adapter's connections
and initialized with XA_FLAGS_LOCK_BH.  However, chcr_ktls_dev_del() and
the chcr_ktls_dev_add() error path use xa_erase(), which takes the XArray
lock without disabling softirqs.

When cleanup runs with softirqs enabled, a receive softirq for another
connection on the same CPU can interrupt the erase and spin on the lock
held by the interrupted task.  Use xa_erase_bh() at both sites to match
the insertion path.

Compile-tested with x86_64 allmodconfig and W=1.
I have not tested this on Chelsio hardware.

Thanks for the patch. Because of the uld_mutex taken in
cxgb4_ktls_dev_add/del, this issue was not coming, but the
change is correct and keeps the locking consistent with
XA_FLAGS_LOCK_BH.
