The problem is veth's get_link_net implementation, even after my change in patch 6: static struct net *veth_get_link_net(const struct net_device *dev) { struct veth_priv *priv = netdev_priv(dev); struct net_device *peer = rcu_dereference_rtnl(priv->peer); return peer ? dev_net(peer) : dev_net(dev); } These commands: ip link add type veth sysctl net.ipv6.neigh.veth0.retrans_time_ms=2000 cause this splat: [ 91.426764] ============================= [ 91.427445] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage [ 91.428129] 5.9.0-rc6-net-00331-gae48bef8808b-dirty #266 Not tainted [ 91.429209] ----------------------------- [ 91.433898] drivers/net/veth.c:1436 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
