Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 2/2] Revert "xfrm: destroy xfrm_state synchronously on net exit path"
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2025 17:11:53 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250729211153.2893984-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250729211153.2893984-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@queasysnail.net>
[ Upstream commit 2a198bbec6913ae1c90ec963750003c6213668c7 ]
This reverts commit f75a2804da391571563c4b6b29e7797787332673.
With all states (whether user or kern) removed from the hashtables
during deletion, there's no need for synchronous destruction of
states. xfrm6_tunnel states still need to have been destroyed (which
will be the case when its last user is deleted (not destroyed)) so
that xfrm6_tunnel_free_spi removes it from the per-netns hashtable
before the netns is destroyed.
This has the benefit of skipping one synchronize_rcu per state (in
__xfrm_state_destroy(sync=true)) when we exit a netns.
