net: hold instance lock during NETDEV_CHANGE
Cosmin reports an issue with ipv6_add_dev being called from NETDEV_CHANGE notifier: [ 3455.008776] ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620 [ 3455.010097] ipv6_find_idev+0x96/0xe0 [ 3455.010725] addrconf_add_dev+0x1e/0xa0 [ 3455.011382] addrconf_init_auto_addrs+0xb0/0x720 [ 3455.013537] addrconf_notify+0x35f/0x8d0 [ 3455.014214] notifier_call_chain+0x38/0xf0 [ 3455.014903] netdev_state_change+0x65/0x90 [ 3455.015586] linkwatch_do_dev+0x5a/0x70 [ 3455.016238] rtnl_getlink+0x241/0x3e0 [ 3455.019046] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x177/0x5e0 Similarly, linkwatch might get to ipv6_add_dev without ops lock: [ 3456.656261] ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620 [ 3456.660039] ipv6_find_idev+0x96/0xe0 [ 3456.660445] addrconf_add_dev+0x1e/0xa0 [ 3456.660861] addrconf_init_auto_addrs+0xb0/0x720 [ 3456.661803] addrconf_notify+0x35f/0x8d0 [ 3456.662236] notifier_call_chain+0x38/0xf0 [ 3456.662676] netdev_state_change+0x65/0x90 [ 3456.663112] linkwatch_do_dev+0x5a/0x70 [ 3456.663529] __linkwatch_run_queue+0xeb/0x200 [ 3456.663990] linkwatch_event+0x21/0x30 [ 3456.664399] process_one_work+0x211/0x610 [ 3456.664828] worker_thread+0x1cc/0x380 [ 3456.665691] kthread+0xf4/0x210 Reclassify NETDEV_CHANGE as a notifier that consistently runs under the instance lock.
