From 3f4cfc2d11c9e29709e6f0f3add54039614d847a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2006 17:44:07 -0800 Subject: [BRIDGE]: Fix device delete race. This is a simpler fix for the two races in bridge device removal. The Xen race of delif and notify is managed now by a new deleted flag. No need for barriers or other locking because of rtnl mutex. The del_timer_sync()'s are unnecessary, because br_stp_disable_port delete's the timers, and they will finish running before RCU callback. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
