Linux kernel source tree

MPLS uses RTNL 1) to guarantee the lifetime of struct mpls_nh.nh_dev 2) to protect net->mpls.platform_label , but neither actually requires RTNL. If we do not call dev_put() in find_outdev() and call it just before freeing struct mpls_route, we can drop RTNL for 1). Let's hold the refcnt of mpls_nh.nh_dev and track it with netdevice_tracker. Two notable changes: If mpls_nh_build_multi() fails to set up a neighbour, we need to call netdev_put() for successfully created neighbours in mpls_rt_free_rcu(), so the number of neighbours (rt->rt_nhn) is now updated in each iteration. When a dev is unregistered, mpls_ifdown() clones mpls_route and replaces it with the clone, so the clone requires extra netdev_hold().

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.
