net: initialize init_net earlier
[ Upstream commit 9c1be1935fb68b2413796cdc03d019b8cf35ab51 ] While testing a patch that will follow later ("net: add netns refcount tracker to struct nsproxy") I found that devtmpfs_init() was called before init_net was initialized. This is a bug, because devtmpfs_setup() calls ksys_unshare(CLONE_NEWNS); This has the effect of increasing init_net refcount, which will be later overwritten to 1, as part of setup_net(&init_net) We had too many prior patches [1] trying to work around the root cause. Really, make sure init_net is in BSS section, and that net_ns_init() is called earlier at boot time. Note that another patch ("vfs: add netns refcount tracker to struct fs_context") also will need net_ns_init() being called before vfs_caches_init() As a bonus, this patch saves around 4KB in .data section. [1] f8c46cb39079 ("netns: do not call pernet ops for not yet set up init_net namespace") b5082df8019a ("net: Initialise init_net.count to 1") 734b65417b24 ("net: Statically initialize init_net.dev_base_head") v2: fixed a build error reported by kernel build bots (CONFIG_NET=n) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
