Merge branch 'inet-implement-lockless-rtm_getnetconf-ops'
Eric Dumazet says: ==================== inet: implement lockless RTM_GETNETCONF ops This series removes RTNL use for RTM_GETNETCONF operations on AF_INET. - Annotate data-races to avoid possible KCSAN splats. - "ip -4 netconf show dev XXX" can be implemented without RTNL [1] - "ip -4 netconf" dumps can be implemented using RCU instead of RTNL [1] [1] This only refers to RTM_GETNETCONF operation, "ip" command also uses RTM_GETLINK dumps which are using RTNL at this moment. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240227092411.2315725-1-edumazet@google.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
