The altname nodes are currently not moved to the new netns
when netdevice itself moves:
[ ~]# ip netns add test
[ ~]# ip -netns test link add name eth0 type dummy
[ ~]# ip -netns test link property add dev eth0 altname some-name
[ ~]# ip -netns test link show dev some-name
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 1e:67:ed:19:3d:24 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
altname some-name
[ ~]# ip -netns test link set dev eth0 netns 1
[ ~]# ip link
...
3: eth0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 02:40:88:62:ec:b8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
altname some-name
[ ~]# ip li show dev some-name
Device "some-name" does not exist.
Remove them from the hash table when device is unlisted
and add back when listed again.
Fixes: 36fbf1e52b ("net: rtnetlink: add linkprop commands to add and delete alternative ifnames")

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.
