Is this really called under rtnl?

Yes it is __tun_chr_ioctl() will call rtnl_lock().

Is the call from tun_free_netdev under rtnl too?

Looks not, need hold rtnl_lock() in tun_free_netdev in next version.

If no then rtnl_dereference
is wrong. If yes I'm not sure you can call synchronize_net
under rtnl.

Are you worrying about the long wait? Looking at synchronize_net(), it does:

void synchronize_net(void)
{
     might_sleep();
     if (rtnl_is_locked())
         synchronize_rcu_expedited();
     else
         synchronize_rcu();
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(synchronize_net);

Thanks

Not the wait - expedited is not a good thing to allow unpriveledged
userspace to do, it interrupts all VMs running on the same box.

Good point.

We could use a callback though the docs warn userspace can use that
to cause a DOS and needs to be limited.

Will do this in next version.

Thanks
