Merge branch 'ipv4-namespacify-ipv4-address-hash-table'
Kuniyuki Iwashima says: ==================== ipv4: Namespacify IPv4 address hash table. This is a prep of per-net RTNL conversion for RTM_(NEW|DEL|SET)ADDR. Currently, each IPv4 address is linked to the global hash table, and this needs to be protected by another global lock or namespacified to support per-net RTNL. Adding a global lock will cause deadlock in the rtnetlink path and GC, rtnetlink check_lifetime |- rtnl_net_lock(net) |- acquire the global lock |- acquire the global lock |- check ifa's netns `- put ifa into hash table `- rtnl_net_lock(net) so we need to namespacify the hash table. The IPv6 one is already namespacified, let's follow that. v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20241004195958.64396-1-kuniyu@amazon.com/ v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20241001024837.96425-1-kuniyu@amazon.com/ ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241008172906.1326-1-kuniyu@amazon.com Signed-off-by:Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
