Hey all,
I recently used a testing program to test the 4.19 stable branch kernel and found that a crash occurred immediately. The test source code link is: https://github.com/Backmyheart/src0358/blob/master/vxlan_fdb_destroy.c
The test command is as follows: gcc vxlan_fdb_destroy.c -o vxlan_fdb_destroy -lpthread
According to its stack, upstream has relevant repair patch, the commit id is 7c31e54aeee517d1318dfc0bde9fa7de75893dc6.
May i ask if the 4.19 kernel will port this patch ?
Hi zhulei,
The commit 7c31e54aeee5 ("vxlan: do not destroy fdb if register_netdevice() is failed") was not backported to 4.19-stable tree. https://lore.kernel.org/stable/15641355392228@kroah.com/
So, you can request a backport. Please check the URL: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
Thanks a lot! Taehee Yoo
