Is there a specific bug that you are trying to > track down? I hope such checks allows to detect leaked per-netns objects. Also I hope that all new pernet_operations will inherit such checks too. I assume that elements added into per-net lists should not live longer than net namespace, and should be deleted from the list. I think exit_net hook is good place for such check. Recently I've found lost list_entry and enabled timer on stop of net namespace. Then I've reviewed all existing pernet_operations and found that many drivers have such checks already. So I decided to complete this task and add such checks into all affected subsystems. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
