Roopa reported attempts to delete a bond device that is referenced in a multipath route is hanging: $ ifdown bond2 # ifupdown2 command that deletes virtual devices unregister_netdevice: waiting for bond2 to become free. Usage count = 2 Steps to reproduce: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/ignore_routes_with_linkdown ip link add dev bond12 type bond ip link add dev bond13 type bond ip addr add 2001:db8:2::0/64 dev bond12 ip addr add 2001:db8:3::0/64 dev bond13 ip route add 2001:db8:33::0/64 nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2 nexthop via 2001:db8:3::2 ip link del dev bond12 ip link del dev bond13 The root cause is the recent change to keep routes on a linkdown. Update the check to detect when the device is unregistering and release the route for that case.
