That substitution is\nwhat an RDS/TCP socket sending to a local address gets, and after it\nthe path init loop still runs for the TCP transport\u0027s RDS_MPATH_WORKERS\npaths and allocates an ordered workqueue for each, while\nrds_loop_conn_alloc() only ever provides transport data for path 0.\n\nrds_conn_destroy() sizes its teardown from c_trans, by then the\nloopback transport, so it visits path 0 only - and\nrds_conn_path_destroy() would skip the other paths anyway, since it\nreturns before destroy_workqueue() for a path without transport data.\nkfree(c_path) then drops the last pointers to seven workqueues.  That\nrepeats for every such connection, on every netns teardown or module\nunload, and every distinct local destination address is a separate\nconnection.\n\nRecompute npaths once the transport is final, so that creation and\ndestruction agree on the set of paths.  The c_path array stays sized\nfor the caller\u0027s transport; the unused entries are freed with it."
