Subject: [PATCH v1 net-next 7/7] ip_tunnel: Support per-netns device unregistration.
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 22:56:52 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907225846.3787676-8-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907225846.3787676-1-kuniyu@google.com>
ip_tunnel_delete_net() iterates ip_tunnel devices whose link_net
is dying and queues them for destruction.
The devices may reside in different netns.
Let's use unregister_netdevice_queue_net() to support per-netns
device unregistration.
Even after ip_tunnel_delete_net() queues a cross-netns ip_tunnel
device, ip_tunnel_changelink(), ip_tunnel_dellink(), and
ip_tunnel_ctl() could be called concurrently for it (once RTNL is
removed). In such a case, __rtnl_net_unlock() will perform the
unregistration.
In the example below, we can see the fallback tunnel device (gre0)
and the cross-netns device (gre1) are unregistered by different
processes:
# bpftrace -e '#include <linux/netdevice.h>
kprobe:ip_tunnel_uninit {
$dev = (struct net_device *)arg0;
printf("PID: %d | DEV: %s%s\n", pid, $dev->name, kstack());
}
kprobe:ipgre_exit_rtnl {
printf("PID: %d%s\n", pid, kstack());
}' &
# ip netns add ns1
# ip netns add ns2
# ip -n ns1 link add name gre1 link-netns ns2 \
type gre local 192.168.0.1 remote 192.168.1.1
# ip netns del ns2
