Forward skbs sent from one netdevsim port to its connected netdevsim port using dev_forward_skb, in a spirit similar to veth. Add a tx_dropped variable to struct netdevsim, tracking the number of skbs that could not be forwarded using dev_forward_skb(). The xmit() function accessing the peer ptr is protected by an RCU read critical section. The rcu_read_lock() is functionally redundant as since v5.0 all softirqs are implicitly RCU read critical sections; but it is useful for human readers. If another CPU is concurrently in nsim_destroy(), then it will first set the peer ptr to NULL. This does not affect any existing readers that dereferenced a non-NULL peer. Then, in unregister_netdevice(), there is a synchronize_rcu() before the netdev is actually unregistered and freed. This ensures that any readers i.e. xmit() that got a non-NULL peer will complete before the netdev is freed. Any readers after the RCU_INIT_POINTER() but before synchronize_rcu() will dereference NULL, making it safe. The codepath to nsim_destroy() and nsim_create() takes both the newly added nsim_dev_list_lock and rtnl_lock. This makes it safe with concurrent calls to linking two netdevsims together.
