Otherwise, the helper code may be already gone by when the worker has a chance to run to release the netns. If so, probably I can append this as comment to this function so we don't forget. If we ever have .exit callbacks (I don't expect so), we would need to wait for worker completion. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
