The nexthop notification chain is a per-namespace chain and not a global one like the netdev notification chain. Therefore, a single (global) listener cannot be registered to all these chains simultaneously as it will result in list corruptions whenever listeners are registered / unregistered. Instead, register a different listener in each namespace. Currently this is not an issue because only the VXLAN driver registers a listener to this chain, but this is going to change with netdevsim and mlxsw also registering their own listeners.

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.
