Linux kernel source tree
Two synchronize_net() calls are currently done while holding RTNL. This is source of RTNL contention in workloads adding and deleting many network namespaces per second, because synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_rcu_expedited() can use 60+ ms in some cases. For cleanup_net() use, temporarily release RTNL while calling the last synchronize_net(). This should be safe, because devices are no longer visible to other threads at this point. In any case, the new netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() infrastructure that we are adding should allow to fix potential issues, with a combination of a per-device mutex and dev->reg_state awareness.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
