Device that bound to XDP socket will not have zero refcount until the userspace application will not close it. This leads to hang inside 'netdev_wait_allrefs()' if device unregistering requested: # ip link del p1 < hang on recvmsg on netlink socket > # ps -x | grep ip 5126 pts/0 D+ 0:00 ip link del p1 # journalctl -b Jun 05 07:19:16 kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for p1 to become free. Usage count = 1 Jun 05 07:19:27 kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for p1 to become free. Usage count = 1 ... Fix that by implementing NETDEV_UNREGISTER event notification handler to properly clean up all the resources and unref device. This should also allow socket killing via ss(8) utility.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
