[PATCH net-next] amt: no longer rely on RTNL in amt_fill_info()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
Date: 2026-07-01 12:50:20
Subsystem: amt (automatic multicast tunneling), networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Taehee Yoo, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds 

Update amt_fill_info() to run under RCU read lock instead of RTNL.

The AMT device configuration fields (mode, relay_port, gw_port, local_ip,
discovery_ip, max_tunnels) and stream_dev pointer are initialized during
device creation (amt_newlink) and are immutable. Accessing them locklessly
is safe. The stream_dev net_device structure is protected from being freed
by RCU.

The only field that can change concurrently is amt->remote_ip, which is
updated in the packet receive path (amt_advertisement_handler) and
workqueue (amt_req_work). Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations
around amt->remote_ip to prevent data races.
