Hi,
I have an additional question about the locks on the addr_list actually.
In addrconf_ifdown, there's a loop on addr_list within a write lock in idev->lock
> list_for_each_entry_safe(ifa, tmp, &idev->addr_list, if_list)
The loop body unlocks the idev->lock and reacquires it later. I assume because of the lock dependency on ifa->lock and the calls that acquire the mc_lock? Shouldn't that list iteration also be protected during the whole iteration?
Thanks
Niels
