Subject: [PATCH v1 net-next 03/10] ipv4: fib: Protect fib_new_table() with spinlock.
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2026 18:10:55 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260629181226.1929658-4-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260629181226.1929658-1-kuniyu@google.com>
fib_newrule() will drop RTNL except for the first IPv4 rule.
Then, fib4_rule_configure() could call fib_empty_table() and create
a new IPv4 fib_table without RTNL.
Currently, net->ipv4.fib_table_hash[] is only protected by RTNL.
As a prep, let's protect net->ipv4.fib_table_hash[] with a dedicated
spinlock.
