yeah. I'll investigate - it's quite likely that sk_receive_queue.lock will have to get per-address family locking rules - right?
Yes that's the issue.
Maybe it's enough to introduce a separate key for AF_UNIX alone (and still having all other protocols share the locking rules for sk_receive_queue.lock) , by reinitializing its spinlock after sock_init_data()?
This could work. AF_UNIX is probably the only family that does not interact with hardware. Cheers, -- Visit Openswan at http://www.openswan.org/ Email: Herbert Xu ~{PmV>HI~} [off-list ref] Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
