> In commit 242d3a49a2a1 ("ipv6: reorder ip6_route_dev_notifier after > ipv6_dev_notf") > I assumed NETDEV_REGISTER and NETDEV_UNREGISTER are paired, > unfortunately, as reported by jeffy, netdev_wait_allrefs() > could rebroadcast NETDEV_UNREGISTER event until all refs are > gone. > > We have to add an additional check to avoid this corner case. > For netdev_wait_allrefs() dev->reg_state is NETREG_UNREGISTERED, > for dev_change_net_namespace(), dev->reg_state is > NETREG_REGISTERED. So check for dev->reg_state != NETREG_UNREGISTERED. > > Fixes: 242d3a49a2a1 ("ipv6: reorder ip6_route_dev_notifier after > ipv6_dev_notf") > Reported-by: jeffy <jeffy.c...@rock-chips.com> > Cc: David Ahern <dsah...@gmail.com> > Signed-off-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangc...@gmail.com> Applied.
