From c506653d35249bb4738bb139c24362e1ae724bc1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 13:16:16 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: arp_ioctl() must hold RTNL Commit 941666c2e3e0 "net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl()" introduced a regression, reported by Jamie Heilman. "arp -Ds 192.168.2.41 eth0 pub" triggered the ASSERT_RTNL() assert in pneigh_lookup() Removing RTNL requirement from arp_ioctl() was a mistake, just revert that part.
