[ovs-dev] [PATCH 3/3] lisp: avoid using stale lisp socket.

2016-10-29 Thread Pravin B Shelar
This patch is similar to earlier vxlan patch. Lisp device close operation frees lisp socket. This operation can race with lisp-xmit function which dereferences lisp socket. Following patch uses RCU mechanism to avoid this situation. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar ---
