Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/11] inet: frags: avoid possible races at netns dismantle

This patch series fixes a race happening on netns dismantle with
frag queues. While rhashtable_free_and_destroy() is running,
concurrent timers might run inet_frag_kill() and attempt
rhashtable_remove_fast() calls. This is not allowed by
rhashtable logic.

Since I do not want to add expensive synchronize_rcu() calls
in the netns dismantle path, I had to no longer inline
netns_frags structures, but dynamically allocate them.

The ten first patches make this preparation, so that
the last patch clearly shows the fix.

As this patch series is not exactly trivial, I chose to
target 5.3. We will backport it once soaked a bit.

Eric Dumazet (11):
  inet: rename netns_frags to fqdir
  net: rename inet_frags_exit_net() to fqdir_exit()
  net: rename struct fqdir fields
  ipv4: no longer reference init_net in ip4_frags_ns_ctl_table[]
  ipv6: no longer reference init_net in ip6_frags_ns_ctl_table[]
  netfilter: ipv6: nf_defrag: no longer reference init_net in
    nf_ct_frag6_sysctl_table
  ieee820154: 6lowpan: no longer reference init_net in
    lowpan_frags_ns_ctl_table
  net: rename inet_frags_init_net() to fdir_init()
  net: add a net pointer to struct fqdir
  net: dynamically allocate fqdir structures
  inet: frags: rework rhashtable dismantle
