Chernikov <melifaro@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2021-02-16 20:12:58 +0000 Commit: Alexander V. Chernikov <melifaro@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2021-02-16 20:14:50 +0000 Add ifa_try_ref() to simplify ifa handling inside epoch. More and more code migrates from lock-based protection to the NET_EPOCH umbrella. It requires some logic changes, including, notably, refcount handling. When we have an `ifa` pointer and we're running inside epoch we're guaranteed that this pointer will not be freed. However, the following case can still happen: * in thread 1 we drop to 0 refcount for ifa and schedule its deletion. * in thread 2 we use this ifa and reference it * destroy callout kicks in * unhappy user reports bug To address it, new `ifa_try_ref()` function is added, allowing to return failure when we try to reference `ifa` with 0 refcount. Additionally, existing `ifa_ref()` is enforced with `KASSERT` to provide cleaner error in such scenarious.
