From 91864f5852f9996210fad400cf70fb85af091243 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrey Vagin Date: Sun, 12 Mar 2017 21:36:18 -0700 Subject: net: use net->count to check whether a netns is alive or not MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The previous idea was to check whether a net namespace is in net_exit_list or not. It doesn't work, because net->exit_list is used in __register_pernet_operations and __unregister_pernet_operations where all namespaces are added to a temporary list to make cleanup in a error case, so list_empty(&net->exit_list) always returns false.
