The linux-next integration testing tree
76aed95319
The goal is to break RTNL down into per-netns mutex. This patch adds per-netns mutex and its helper functions, rtnl_net_lock() and rtnl_net_unlock(). rtnl_net_lock() acquires the global RTNL and per-netns RTNL mutex, and rtnl_net_unlock() releases them. We will replace 800+ rtnl_lock() with rtnl_net_lock() and finally removes rtnl_lock() in rtnl_net_lock(). When we need to nest per-netns RTNL mutex, we will use __rtnl_net_lock(), and its locking order is defined by rtnl_net_lock_cmp_fn() as follows: 1. init_net is first 2. netns address ascending order Note that the conversion will be done under CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL with LOCKDEP so that we can carefully add the extra mutex without slowing down RTNL operations during conversion.

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.
