Subject: neighbour: Remove __pneigh_lookup().
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dd103c9a53752d3754a3182ec8dd97885680cfe2;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git

neighbour: Remove __pneigh_lookup().

__pneigh_lookup() is the lockless version of pneigh_lookup(),
but its only caller pndisc_is_router() holds the table lock and
reads pneigh_netry.flags.

This is because accessing pneigh_entry after pneigh_lookup() was
illegal unless the caller holds RTNL or the table lock.

Now, pneigh_entry is guaranteed to be alive during the RCU critical
section.

Let's call pneigh_lookup() and use READ_ONCE() for n->flags in
pndisc_is_router() and remove __pneigh_lookup().
