From b10dcb3b94010e3ac3951f68789400b1665effb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2014 18:56:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] netlink: update listeners directly when removing socket The code is now confusing to read - first in one function down (netlink_remove) any group subscriptions are implicitly removed by calling __sk_del_bind_node(), but the subscriber database is only updated far later by calling netlink_update_listeners(). Move the latter call to just after removal from the list so it is easier to follow the code. This also enables moving the locking inside the kernel-socket conditional, which improves the normal socket destruction path. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: David S.
