From a366e300ae9fc466d333e6d8f2bc5d58ed248041 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2018 08:43:19 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ip6mr: remove synchronize_rcu() in favor of SOCK_RCU_FREE Kirill found that recently added synchronize_rcu() call in ip6mr_sk_done() was slowing down netns dismantle and posted a patch to use it only if the socket was found. I instead suggested to get rid of this call, and use instead SOCK_RCU_FREE We might later change IPv4 side to use the same technique and unify both stacks. IPv4 does not use synchronize_rcu() but has a call_rcu() that could be replaced by SOCK_RCU_FREE.
