Subject: [PATCH v1 net-next 1/5] ipv4: fib: Flush all fib_info in fib_table_flush() during netns dismantle.
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 06:32:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260612063225.455191-2-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260612063225.455191-1-kuniyu@google.com>
Even when fib_table_flush() is called with flush_all true, it does
not flush all fib_info due to this condition:
!(fi->fib_flags & RTNH_F_DEAD) && !fib_props[fa->fa_type].error)
This creates an implicit ordering between default_device_exit_batch()
and fib_net_exit_batch().
fib_table_flush(flush_all=true) must be called after all devices
are NETDEV_UNREGISTERed, which is after nexthop_flush_dev() marks
RTNH_F_DEAD.
This would cause memory leak if the order were reversed.
fib_table_flush() does not skip non-dead error routes when flush_all
is true:
!flush_all &&
!(fi->fib_flags & RTNH_F_DEAD) && fib_props[fa->fa_type].error
Let's merge the two conditions not to skip all non-dead fib_info
during netns dismantle.
Note that we could further apply !flush_all to the basic table
id check and the rtmsg_fib() call in the loop.
