Subject: [PATCH net-next v10 05/11] ipv6: do not call ndisc_send_rs() with write lock
Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2013 13:22:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1377667379-2315-6-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1377667379-2315-1-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com>

From: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com>

Because vxlan module will call ip6_dst_lookup() in TX path,
which will hold write lock. So we have to release this write lock
before calling ndisc_send_rs(), otherwise could deadlock.
