Ying Xue says: ==================== tipc: Fix missing RTNL lock protection during setting link properties At present it's unsafe to configure link properties through netlink as the entire setting process is not under RTNL lock protection. Now TIPC supports two different sets of netlink APIs at the same time, and they share the same set of backend functions to configure bearer, media and net properties. In order to solve the missing RTNL issue, we have to make the whole __tipc_nl_compat_doit() protected by RTNL, which means any function called within it cannot take RTNL any more. So in the series we first introduce the following new functions which doesn't hold RTNl lock: - __tipc_nl_bearer_disable() - __tipc_nl_bearer_enable() - __tipc_nl_bearer_set() - __tipc_nl_media_set() - __tipc_nl_net_set() Meanwhile, __tipc_nl_compat_doit() has been reconstructed to minimize the time of holding RTNL lock. Changes in v4: - Per suggestion of Kirill Tkhai, divided original big one patch into seven small ones so that they can be easily reviewed. Changes in v3: - Optimized return method of __tipc_nl_bearer_enable() regarding the comments from David M and Kirill Tkhai - Moved the allocations of memory in __tipc_nl_compat_doit() out of RTNL lock to minimize the time of holding RTNL lock according to the suggestion of Kirill Tkhai. Changes in v2: - The whole operation of setting bearer/media properties has been protected under RTNL, as per feedback from David M. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
