Miller" , Nikolay Aleksandrov , Veaceslav Falico , Netdev Return-path: Received: from szxga01-in.huawei.com ([119.145.14.64]:8015 "EHLO szxga01-in.huawei.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1753746Ab3JXDMy (ORCPT ); Wed, 23 Oct 2013 23:12:54 -0400 Sender: netdev-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: The bond slave list may change when the monitor is running, the slave list is no longer protected by bond->lock, only protected by rtnl lock(), so we has 3 way to modify it: 1.add bond_master_upper_dev_link() and bond_upper_dev_unlink() in bond->lock, but it is unsafe to call call_netdevice_notifiers() in write lock. 2.remove unused bond->lock for monitor function, only use the exist rtnl lock(). 3.use rcu_read_lock() to protect it, of course, it will transform bond_for_each_slave to bond_for_each_slave_rcu() and performance is better, but in slow path, it is ignored. so I remove the bond->lock and move the rtnl lock to protect the whole monitor function.
