They should be sleeping almost all the time, not spinning on anything. I'll work on getting that patch upstream (but likely not nearly as verbose, probably just a single WARNING for leaked namespace). After that, I'll keep working on adding dst leak debugging to actually try to find where your dst leak is coming from. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1711407 Title: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in linux source package in Zesty: Won't Fix Status in linux source package in Artful: In Progress Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Bug description: This is a "continuation" of bug 1403152, as that bug has been marked "fix released" and recent reports of failure may (or may not) be a new bug.

Usage count = 1 This can cause issues when trying to create net network namespace and thus block a user from creating new containers.
