The number of alive nexthops for a route (rt->rt_nhn_alive) and the flags for a next hop (nh->nh_flags) are modified by netdev event handlers. The event handlers run with rtnl_lock held so updates are always done with the lock held. The packet path accesses the fields under the rcu lock. Since those fields can change at any moment in the packet path, both fields should be accessed using READ_ONCE. Updates to both fields should use WRITE_ONCE. Update mpls_select_multipath (packet path) and mpls_ifdown and mpls_ifup (event handlers) accordingly. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
