From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Vladimir Oltean Date: Tue, 5 Jan 2021 20:58:53 +0200 Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [RFC PATCH v2 net-next 03/12] net: procfs: hold netif_lists_lock when retrieving device statistics In-Reply-To: <20210105185902.3922928-1-olteanv@gmail.com> References: <20210105185902.3922928-1-olteanv@gmail.com> Message-ID: <20210105185902.3922928-4-olteanv@gmail.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: intel-wired-lan@osuosl.org List-ID: From: Vladimir Oltean In the effort of making .ndo_get_stats64 be able to sleep, we need to ensure the callers of dev_get_stats do not use atomic context. The /proc/net/dev file uses an RCU read-side critical section to ensure the integrity of the list of network interfaces, because it iterates through all net devices in the netns to show their statistics. To offer the equivalent protection against an interface registering or deregistering, while also remaining in sleepable context, we can use the netns mutex for the interface lists.
