Aside from the fact that the current net_namespace is not guaranteed to
exist when we are called from free_nsproxy, svc_destroy() looks
seriously broken:

Trond, looks like you are mistaken here.
Any process holds references to all namespaces it belong to (copy_net_ns() increase usage counter). And network namespace is released after mount namespace in free_nsproxy.


* On the one hand it is trying to free struct svc_serv (and
presumably all structures owned by struct svc_serv).
* On the other hand, it tries to pass a parameter to
svc_close_net() saying "please don't free structures on my
sv_tempsocks, or sv_permsocks list unless they match this net
namespace".


I've sent patches, which moves svc_shutdown_net() from svc_destroy() ("SUNRPC: separate per-net data creation from service").
with this patch set it's assumed, that per-net resources will be created or released prior to service creation and destruction.

Bruce, how is this supposed to be working?

Cheers
Trond
