Hi Hangbin, Thanks for the patch and especially for the test. While I see that you've pointed to a real problem, I don't think that this particular way of fixing it is correct, because it will cause issues for userspace that expects to be able to read back the list of peers for, for example, keeping track of the latest endpoint addresses or rx/tx transfer quantities.
I think the real solution here is to simply clear the endpoint src cache and consequently the dst_cache. This is slightly complicated by the fact that dst_cache releases dsts lazily, so I needed to add a little utility function for that, but that was pretty easy to do. Can you take a look at the below patch and let me know if it works for you and passes other testing you and Toke might be doing with it? (Also, please CC the wireguard mailing list in addition to netdev next time?) If the patch looks good to you and works well, I'll include it in the next series of wireguard patches I send back out to netdev. I'm back from travels next week and will begin working on the next series then.

Donenfeld" <ja...@zx2c4.com> Date: Wed, 1 Sep 2021 14:53:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wireguard: device: reset peer src endpoint when netns exits MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Each peer's endpoint contains a dst_cache entry that takes a reference to another netdev. When the containing namespace exits, we take down the socket and prevent future sockets from being created (by setting creating_net to NULL), which removes that potential reference on the netns. However, it doesn't release references to the netns that a netdev cached in dst_cache might be taking, so the netns still might fail to exit. Since the socket is gimped anyway, we can simply clear all the dst_caches (by way of clearing the endpoint src), which will release all references. However, the current dst_cache_reset function only releases those references lazily. But it turns out that all of our usages of wg_socket_clear_peer_endpoint_src are called from contexts that are not exactly high-speed or bottle-necked. For example, when there's connection difficulty, or when userspace is reconfiguring the interface. And in particular for this patch, when the netns is exiting. So for those cases, it makes more sense to call dst_release immediately. For that, we add a small helper function to dst_cache. This patch also adds a test to netns.sh from Hangbin Liu to ensure this doesn't regress.
