net: free altname using an RCU callback

2024-01-29T14:40:38Z

We had to add another synchronize_rcu() in recent fix. Bite the bullet and add an rcu_head to netdev_name_node, free from RCU. Note that name_node does not hold any reference on dev to which it points, but there must be a synchronize_rcu() on device removal path, so we should be fine.

net: fix removing a namespace with conflicting altnames

2024-01-22T01:09:30Z

Mark reports a BUG() when a net namespace is removed. kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:11520! Physical interfaces moved outside of init_net get "refunded" to init_net when that namespace disappears. The main interface name may get overwritten in the process if it would have conflicted. We need to also discard all conflicting altnames. Recent fixes addressed ensuring that altnames get moved with the main interface, which surfaced this problem.

net: core: synchronize link-watch when carrier is queried

2023-12-06T04:16:45Z

There are multiple ways to query for the carrier state: through rtnetlink, sysfs, and (possibly) ethtool. Synchronize linkwatch work before these operations so that we don't have a situation where userspace queries the carrier state between the driver's carrier off->on transition and linkwatch running and expects it to work, when really (at least) TX cannot work until linkwatch has run. I previously posted a longer explanation of how this applies to wireless [1] but with this wireless can simply query the state before sending data, to ensure the kernel is ready for it.
