Ido reports a rcu splat in __rtnl_register.
The splat is correct; as rtnl_register doesn't grab any logs
and doesn't use rcu locks either. It has always been like this.
handler families are not registered in parallel so there are no
races wrt. the kmalloc ordering.
The only reason to use rcu_dereference in the first place was to
avoid sparse from complaining about this.
Thus this switches to _raw() to not have rcu checks here.
The alternative is to add rtnl locking to register/unregister,
however, I don't see a compelling reason to do so as this has been
lockless for the past twenty years or so.

When a link between two nodes come up, both endpoints will initially
send out a STATE message to the peer, to increase the probability that
the peer endpoint also is up when the first traffic message arrives.
Thereafter, if the establishing link is the second link between two
nodes, this first "traffic" message is a TUNNEL_PROTOCOL/SYNCH message,
helping the peer to perform initial synchronization between the two
links.
However, the initial STATE message may be lost, in which case the SYNCH
message will be the first one arriving at the peer. This should also
work, as the SYNCH message itself will be used to take up the link
endpoint before initializing synchronization.
Unfortunately the code for this case is broken. Currently, the link is
brought up through a tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) when a SYNCH
arrives, whereupon __tipc_node_link_up() is called to distribute the
link slots and take the link into traffic. But, __tipc_node_link_up() is
itself starting with a test for whether the link is up, and if true,
returns without action. Clearly, the tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) call
is unnecessary, since tipc_node_link_up() is itself issuing such an
event, but also harmful, since it inhibits tipc_node_link_up() to
perform the test of its tasks, and the link endpoint in question hence
is never taken into traffic.
This problem has been exposed when we set up dual links between pre-
and post-4.4 kernels, because the former ones don't send out the
initial STATE message described above.
We fix this by removing the unnecessary event call.

Using mpgroup to define multiple paths for a virtual disk causes multiple
virtual-device-port ports to be created for that virtual device.
Each virtual-device-port port then gets a vdisk created for it by the Linux
sunvdc driver. As mpgroup is not supported by the Linux sunvdc driver it
cannot handle multiple ports for a single vdisk, leading to a kernel panic
at startup.
This fix prevents more than one vdisk per virtual-device-port being created
until full virtual disk multipathing (mpgroup) support is implemented.

rtnetlink: allow selected handlers to run without rtnl
Changes since v1:
In patch 6, don't make ipv6 route handlers lockless, they all have
assumptions on rtnl being held. Other patches are unchanged.
The RTNL mutex is used to serialize both rtnetlink calls and
dump requests.
Its also used to protect other things such as the list of current
net namespaces.
Unfortunately RTNL mutex is a performance issue, e.g. a cpu adding an
ip address prevents other cpus from seemingly unrelated tasks such as
dumping tc classifiers or doing rtnetlink route lookups.
This patch set adds basic infrastructure to start pushing the rtnl lock
down to those places that need it, or even elide it entirely in some cases.
Subsystems can now indicate that their doit() callback can run without
RTNL mutex, such callbacks can then run in parallel.
This will obviously need a lot of followup work; all current
users need to be audited/changed to benefit from this.
Initial no-rtnl spot is netns new/getid.
We have various 'get' handlers that are also a tempting target,
however, several of these depend on rtnl mutex to prevent information
from changing while objects are being read by rtnl handlers; however,
it doesn't appear impossible to change this.
Dumps are another problem entirely, see
commit 2907c35ff6 ("net: hold rtnl again in dump callbacks"),
this patchset doesn't touch dump requests.

I don't see what prevents rmmod (unregister_all is called) while a dump

Even if we'd add rtnl lock/unlock pair to unregister_all (as done here),
thats not enough either as rtnl_lock is released right before the dump
process starts.
So this adds a refcount:
* acquire rtnl mutex
* bump refcount
* release mutex
* start the dump
... and make unregister_all remove the callbacks (no new dumps possible)
and then wait until refcount is 0.

There is only a single place in the kernel that regisers the "calcit"
callback (to determine min allocation for dumps).
This is in rtnetlink.c for PF_UNSPEC RTM_GETLINK.
The function that checks for calcit presence at run time will first check
the requested family (which will always fail for !PF_UNSPEC as no callsite
registers this), then falls back to checking PF_UNSPEC.
Therefore we can just check if type is RTM_GETLINK and then do a direct
call. Because of fallback to PF_UNSPEC all RTM_GETLINK types used this
regardless of family.
This has the advantage that we don't need to allocate space for
the function pointer for all the other families.
A followup patch will drop the calcit function pointer from the
rtnl_link callback structure.
