If T4-rto timer is expired on a removed transport, kernel panic will occur when we do failure management on that transport. You can reproduce this use the following sequence: Endpoint A Endpoint B (ESTABLISHED) (ESTABLISHED) <----------------- ASCONF (SRC=X) ASCONF -----------------> (Delete IP Address = X) <----------------- ASCONF-ACK (Success Indication) <----------------- ASCONF (T4-rto timer expire) This patch fixed the problem.
