Great, I appended one more bug fix to this pull request, a revert to some neighbour code changes that adjust notifications in a way that confuses some apps. ==================== >>From d2fb4fb8ee91c1b8a1dbba6afda6f5ed2eb28bdc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roopa Prabhu Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2018 18:09:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "neighbour: force neigh_invalidate when NUD_FAILED update is from admin" This reverts commit 8e326289e3069dfc9fa9c209924668dd031ab8ef. This patch results in unnecessary netlink notification when one tries to delete a neigh entry already in NUD_FAILED state. Found this with a buggy app that tries to delete a NUD_FAILED entry repeatedly. While the notification issue can be fixed with more checks, adding more complexity here seems unnecessary. Also, recent tests with other changes in the neighbour code have shown that the INCOMPLETE and PROBE checks are good enough for the original issue. Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu Signed-off-by: David S.
