Date: Thu, 06 Mar 2008 14:18:05 +0300 Message-ID: <47CFD2ED.3060207@openvz.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Linux Netdev List To: David Miller Return-path: Received: from sacred.ru ([62.205.161.221]:41234 "EHLO sacred.ru" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1754462AbYCFLS2 (ORCPT ); Thu, 6 Mar 2008 06:18:28 -0500 Sender: netdev-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Proxy neighbors do not have any reference counting, so any caller of pneigh_lookup (unless it's a netlink triggered add/del routine) should _not_ perform any actions on the found proxy entry. There's one exception from this rule - the ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns() uses found entry to check the flags for NTF_ROUTER. This creates a race between the ndisc and pneigh_delete - after the pneigh is returned to the caller, the nd_tbl.lock is dropped and the deleting procedure may proceed. One of the fixes would be to add a reference counting, but this problem exists for ndisc only. Besides such a patch would be too big for -rc4. So I propose to introduce a __pneigh_lookup() which is supposed to be called with the lock held and use it in ndisc code to check the flags on alive pneigh entry. If this is OK, is there a real need in proxy neighbors reference counting for 2.6.26 :) ?
