From: David Ahern <dsah...@gmail.com> More gc_list changes and cleanups.
The first 2 patches are bug fixes from the first gc_list change. Specifically, fix the locking order to be consistent - table lock followed by neighbor lock, and then entries in the FAILED state should always be candidates for forced_gc without waiting for any time span (return to the eviction logic prior to the separate gc_list). Patch 3 removes 2 now unnecessary arguments to neigh_del. Patch 4 moves a helper from a header file to core code in preparation for Patch 5 which removes NTF_EXT_LEARNED entries from the gc_list. These entries are already exempt from forced_gc; patch 5 removes them from consideration and makes them on par with PERMANENT entries given that they are also managed by userspace. David Ahern (5): neighbor: Fix locking order for gc_list changes neighbor: Fix state check in neigh_forced_gc neighbor: Remove state and flags arguments to neigh_del neighbor: Move neigh_update_ext_learned to core file neighbor: Remove externally learned entries from gc_list include/net/neighbour.h | 18 ---------- net/core/neighbour.c | 94 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 2 files changed, 60 insertions(+), 52 deletions(-) -- 2.11.0
