Leaking some memory is definitely better than hanging the system. So I've made syzkaller to recognize "unregister_netdevice: waiting for (.*) to become free" as a kernel bug: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/commit/7a67784ca8bdc3b26cce2f0ec9a40d2dd9ec9396 Unfortunately it does not make it catch these bugs because creating a net namespace per test is too damn slow, so namespaces are reused for lots of tests and when/if it's eventually destroyed it's already too late to find root cause. But I've run a one-off experiment with prompt net namespace destruction and syzkaller was able to easily extract a C reproducer: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/d571e8fff24e127ca48a8c4790d42bfa/raw/52050e93ba9afbb5126b9d7bb39b7e71a82af016/gistfile1.txt On upstream 16e205cf42da1f497b10a4a24f563e6c0d574eec with this config: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/9663c57443adb21f2795b92ef0829d62/raw/bbea0652e23746096dd56855a28f6c681aebcdee/gistfile1.txt this gives me: [ 83.183198] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free.
