Yep, sorry, my mistake, I was thinking the other way around (netns going away) ... which actually, this patchset doesn't handle that does it (I don't see any new code in audit_net_exit())? Is is in a later patch? If so, it really should be in the same patch as this code to prevent bisect nasties. -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com
