From 4e587ea71bf924f7dac621f1351653bd41e446cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Wang Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2017 15:03:10 -0700 Subject: ipv6: fix sparse warning on rt6i_node Commit c5cff8561d2d adds rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node. This generates a new sparse warning on rt->rt6i_node related code: net/ipv6/route.c:1394:30: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) ./include/net/ip6_fib.h:187:14: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) This commit adds "__rcu" tag for rt6i_node and makes sure corresponding rcu API is used for it. After this fix, sparse no longer generates the above warning.
