Miller" , Willy Tarreau Subject: [ 042/143] ipv4 igmp: use in_dev_put in timer handlers instead of __in_dev_put In-Reply-To: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org 2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Salam Noureddine [ Upstream commit e2401654dd0f5f3fb7a8d80dad9554d73d7ca394 ] It is possible for the timer handlers to run after the call to ip_mc_down so use in_dev_put instead of __in_dev_put in the handler function in order to do proper cleanup when the refcnt reaches 0. Otherwise, the refcnt can reach zero without the in_device being destroyed and we end up leaking a reference to the net_device and see messages like the following, unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1 Tested on linux-3.4.43. Signed-off-by: Salam Noureddine Signed-off-by: David S.
