You're the first cab off the rank :) Here are the results of reviewing net/ipv4/* for timer deletion safety. I believe there are some races in there. I have marked these with the string REVIEWME. Ad

[ Andi, please, look at the end ] ipmr_expire_timer is static stateless timer. There are no problems with it. Even not counting that del_timer_sync is deadlocky, it should not be ever used for stati

I've revisited net/ipv4/* and I agree it's safe. I was assuming that the network rx path was called from bh_action() and hence that timers are serialised wrt network rx, But not process context. I se
