Merge branch 'af_unix-fix-regression-by-the-per-netns-hash-table-series'
Kuniyuki Iwashima says: ==================== af_unix: Fix regression by the per-netns hash table series. The series 6dd4142f ("Merge branch 'af_unix-per-netns-socket-hash'") replaced a global hash table with per-netns tables, which caused regression reported in the links below. [0][1] When a pathname socket is visible, any socket with the same type has to be able to connect to it even in different netns. The series puts all sockets into each namespace's hash table, making it impossible to look up a visible socket in different netns. On the other hand, while dumping sockets, they are filtered by netns. To keep such code simple, let's add a new global hash table only for pathname sockets and link them with sk_bind_node. Then we can keep all sockets in each per-netns table and look up pathname sockets via the global table.
