Subject: [PATCH net] bonding: switch bond_miimon_inspect to rtnl lock
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2025 10:22:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250616172213.475764-1-stfomichev@gmail.com> (raw)
Syzkaller reports the following issue:
RTNL: assertion failed at ./include/net/netdev_lock.h (72)
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1141 at ./include/net/netdev_lock.h:72 netdev_ops_assert_locked include/net/netdev_lock.h:72 [inline]

As discussed in [0], the report is a bit bogus, but it exposes
the fact that bond_miimon_inspect might sleep while its being
called under RCU read lock. Convert bond_miimon_inspect callers
(bond_mii_monitor) to rtnl lock.
