From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: David Miller Subject: [GIT] Networking Date: Sun, 16 May 2010 01:32:39 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <20100516.013239.180390751.davem@davemloft.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: akpm@linux-foundation.org, netdev@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org To: torvalds@linux-foundation.org Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org 1) The new SR-IOV VF netlink messages had a critical error in their design, they were not designed to be symmetric (therefore you can't take a netlink message dump, and use the elements to recreate configurations like you can with other netlink message types). Cure this by using nested netlink attributes. Better to fix this before it appears in a released kernel. Fix from Chris Wright. 2) The per-cpu TCP md5 signature state was not properly softirq protected, leading to all kinds of corruptions. Fix from Eric Dumazet. 3) SCTP transport teardown can leave a timer running, fix from Wei Yongjun. Please pull, thanks!
