rtnetlink: delay RTM_DELLINK notification until after ndo_uninit()
The commit 56bfa7ee7c ("unregister_netdevice : move RTM_DELLINK to until after ndo_uninit") tried to do this ealier but while doing so it created a problem. Unfortunately the delayed rtmsg_ifinfo() also delayed call to fill_info(). So this translated into asking driver to remove private state and then query it's private state. This could have catastropic consequences. This change breaks the rtmsg_ifinfo() into two parts - one takes the precise snapshot of the device by called fill_info() before calling the ndo_uninit() and the second part sends the notification using collected snapshot. It was brought to notice when last link is deleted from an ipvlan device when it has free-ed the port and the subsequent .fill_info() call is trying to get the info from the port. kernel: [ 255.139429] ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel: [ 255.139439] WARNING: CPU: 12 PID: 11173 at net/core/rtnetlink.c:2238 rtmsg_ifinfo+0x100/0x110() kernel: [ 255.139493] Modules linked in: ipvlan bonding w1_therm ds2482 wire cdc_acm ehci_pci ehci_hcd i2c_dev i2c_i801 i2c_core msr cpuid bnx2x ptp pps_core mdio libcrc32c kernel: [ 255.139513] CPU: 12 PID: 11173 Comm: ip Not tainted 3.18.0-smp-DEV #167 kernel: [ 255.139514] Hardware name: Intel RML,PCH/Ibis_QC_18, BIOS 1.0.10 05/15/2012 kernel: [ 255.139515] 0000000000000009 ffff880851b6b828 ffffffff815d87f4 00000000000000e0 kernel: [ 255.139516] 0000000000000000 ffff880851b6b868 ffffffff8109c29c 0000000000000000 kernel: [ 255.139518] 00000000ffffffa6 00000000000000d0 ffffffff81aaf580 0000000000000011 kernel: [ 255.139520] Call Trace: kernel: [ 255.139527] [<ffffffff815d87f4>] dump_stack+0x46/0x58 kernel: [ 255.139531] [<ffffffff8109c29c>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8c/0xc0 kernel: [ 255.139540] [<ffffffff8109c2ea>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 kernel: [ 255.139544] [<ffffffff8150d570>] rtmsg_ifinfo+0x100/0x110 kernel: [ 255.139547] [<ffffffff814f78b5>] rollback_registered_many+0x1d5/0x2d0 kernel: [ 255.139549] [<ffffffff814f79cf>] unregister_netdevice_many+0x1f/0xb0 kernel: [ 255.139551] [<ffffffff8150acab>] rtnl_dellink+0xbb/0x110 kernel: [ 255.139553] [<ffffffff8150da90>] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0xa0/0x240 kernel: [ 255.139557] [<ffffffff81329283>] ? rhashtable_lookup_compare+0x43/0x80 kernel: [ 255.139558] [<ffffffff8150d9f0>] ? __rtnl_unlock+0x20/0x20 kernel: [ 255.139562] [<ffffffff8152cb11>] netlink_rcv_skb+0xb1/0xc0 kernel: [ 255.139563] [<ffffffff8150a495>] rtnetlink_rcv+0x25/0x40 kernel: [ 255.139565] [<ffffffff8152c398>] netlink_unicast+0x178/0x230 kernel: [ 255.139567] [<ffffffff8152c75f>] netlink_sendmsg+0x30f/0x420 kernel: [ 255.139571] [<ffffffff814e0b0c>] sock_sendmsg+0x9c/0xd0 kernel: [ 255.139575] [<ffffffff811d1d7f>] ? rw_copy_check_uvector+0x6f/0x130 kernel: [ 255.139577] [<ffffffff814e11c9>] ? copy_msghdr_from_user+0x139/0x1b0 kernel: [ 255.139578] [<ffffffff814e1774>] ___sys_sendmsg+0x304/0x310 kernel: [ 255.139581] [<ffffffff81198723>] ? handle_mm_fault+0xca3/0xde0 kernel: [ 255.139585] [<ffffffff811ebc4c>] ? destroy_inode+0x3c/0x70 kernel: [ 255.139589] [<ffffffff8108e6ec>] ? __do_page_fault+0x20c/0x500 kernel: [ 255.139597] [<ffffffff811e8336>] ? dput+0xb6/0x190 kernel: [ 255.139606] [<ffffffff811f05f6>] ? mntput+0x26/0x40 kernel: [ 255.139611] [<ffffffff811d2b94>] ? __fput+0x174/0x1e0 kernel: [ 255.139613] [<ffffffff814e2129>] __sys_sendmsg+0x49/0x90 kernel: [ 255.139615] [<ffffffff814e2182>] SyS_sendmsg+0x12/0x20 kernel: [ 255.139617] [<ffffffff815df092>] system_call_fastpath+0x12/0x17 kernel: [ 255.139619] ---[ end trace 5e6703e87d984f6b ]--- Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Reported-by: Toshiaki Makita <makita.toshiaki@lab.ntt.co.jp> Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Cc: David S.
