mlxsw: spectrum_router: Make RIF deletion more robust
In the past we had multiple instances where RIFs were not properly deleted. One of the reasons for leaking a RIF was that at the time when IP addresses were flushed from the respective netdev (prompting the destruction of the RIF), the netdev was no longer a mlxsw upper. This caused the inet{,6}addr notification blocks to ignore the NETDEV_DOWN event and leak the RIF. Instead of checking whether the netdev is our upper when an IP address is removed, we can instead check if the netdev has a RIF configured. To look up a RIF we need to access mlxsw private data, so the patch stores the notification blocks inside a mlxsw struct. This then allows us to use container_of() and extract the required private data. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Petr Machata <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
