From 4480d5fa1f6ebe7dfc546e14371d63c8b915a82d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuniyuki Iwashima Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2026 22:17:31 +0000 Subject: ipmr/ip6mr: Convert net->ipv[46].ipmr_seq to atomic_t. We will no longer hold RTNL for ipmr_mfc_add() and ipmr_mfc_delete(). MFC entry can be loosely connected with VIF by its index for mrt->vif_table[] (stored in mfc_parent), but the two tables are not synchronised. i.e. Even if VIF 1 is removed, MFC for VIF 1 is not automatically removed. The only field that the MFC/VIF interfaces share is net->ipv[46].ipmr_seq, which is protected by RTNL. Adding a new mutex for both just to protect a single field is overkill. Let's convert the field to atomic_t.
