ipvlan: Support per-netns netdev unregistration.
When a lower device is unregistered, its upper ipvlan devices must also be unregistered. However, these upper devices may reside in different netns than the lower device. Let's use unregister_netdevice_queue_net() to support per-netns device unregistration for ipvlan. The new dying flag in struct ipvl_dev is used to avoid a race that ipvlan_link_delete() is called while its lower device is being removed in ipvlan_device_event(). If dying is true in ipvlan_link_delete(), the ipvlan device is already destructed but not yet unregistered. In this case, unregistration will be done in __rtnl_net_unlock() of the ->dellink() caller. Tested: 1. Create veth in ns1 and two ipvlan devices in ns2 and ns3. # ip netns add ns1 # ip netns add ns2 # ip netns add ns3 # ip -n ns1 link add veth0 type veth peer veth1 # ip -n ns2 link add ipvl2 link veth0 link-netns ns1 type ipvlan mode l2 # ip -n ns3 link add ipvl3 link veth0 link-netns ns1 type ipvlan mode l2 2. Run bpftrace to check that veth is unregistered first but wait ipvlan to be unregistered # bpftrace -e '#include <linux/netdevice.h> kprobe:ipvlan_uninit, kprobe:veth_dellink, kprobe:free_netdev { $dev = (struct net_device *)arg0; printf("PID: %d | DEV: %s%s\n", pid, $dev->name, kstack()); }' 3. Remove the lower veth0 in ns1. # ip -n ns1 link del veth0 We can see that veth0 is freed after unregistering ipvl2 and ipvl3 in per-netns work because ipvl_port holds refcount of veth0.
