If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Paolo Abeni commit b406472b5ad79ede8d10077f0c8f05505ace8b6d upstream. Since commit c09551c6ff7f ("net: ipv4: use a dedicated counter for icmp_v4 redirect packets") we use 'n_redirects' to account for redirect packets, but we still use 'rate_tokens' to compute the redirect packets exponential backoff. If the device sent to the relevant peer any ICMP error packet after sending a redirect, it will also update 'rate_token' according to the leaking bucket schema; typically 'rate_token' will raise above BITS_PER_LONG and the redirect packets backoff algorithm will produce undefined behavior. Fix the issue using 'n_redirects' to compute the exponential backoff in ip_rt_send_redirect(). Note that we still clear rate_tokens after a redirect silence period, to avoid changing an established behaviour. The root cause predates git history; before the mentioned commit in the critical scenario, the kernel stopped sending redirects, after the mentioned commit the behavior more randomic.
