I think Pablo was touching the root cause, There is a generic fault in the patch, you must take care of un_register of the protocol i.e. my sugguestion is do like this: #ifdef CONFIG_IP_VS_PROTO_TCP if (register_ip_vs_proto_netns(net, &ip_vs_protocol_tcp) < 0) goto unreg; #endif #ifdef CONFIG_IP_VS_PROTO_UDP if (register_ip_vs_proto_netns(net, &ip_vs_protocol_udp) < 0) goto unreg; #endif ... unreg: ip_vs_protocol_net_cleanup(net); return -ENOMEM; } and in register_ip_vs_proto_netns() kzalloc() could be changed to GFP_KERNEL since this will allways be called from process context > > IPVS: Registered protocols (TCP, UDP, SCTP, AH, ESP) > IPVS: Connection hash table configured (size=4096, memory=64Kbytes) > IPVS: Each connection entry needs 264 bytes at least > input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input1 > IPVS: [rr] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [wrr] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [lc] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [wlc] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [lblc] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [lblcr] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [dh] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [sh] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [sed] scheduler registered. > IPVS: [nq] scheduler registered. > general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP > CPU 0 > Modules linked in: > > Pid: 1, comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.3.0-03812-gf51f739 #219 Bochs Bochs > RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff811e21ba>] [<ffffffff811e21ba>] register_ip_vs_app+0x3a/0x70 > RSP: 0018:ffff880002039df0 EFLAGS: 00010246 > RAX: 002a002900280027 RBX: ffff8800020ce680 RCX: 0000000000000000 > RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff8800020ce680 RDI: ffffffff8162ab80 > RBP: ffff880002039e00 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 > R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: ffff880003916800 > R13: 00000000fffffff4 R14: ffffffff816e5f00 R15: ffff880003916800 > FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880002600000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 > CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b > CR2: 00000000004697e0 CR3: 0000000001605000 CR4: 00000000000006b0 > DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 > DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 > Process swapper/0 (pid: 1, threadinfo ffff880002038000, task ffff8800020375a0) > Stack: > ffff8800020ce680 0000000000000000 ffff880002039e50 ffffffff81675610 > ffffffff81614060 00ffffff00000006 ffffffff8149dc9d ffffffff8162b8a0 > 0000000000000000 ffffffff81675699 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 > Call Trace: > [<ffffffff81675610>] __ip_vs_ftp_init+0x6b/0xf4 > [<ffffffff81675699>] ? __ip_vs_ftp_init+0xf4/0xf4 > [<ffffffff811a6011>] ops_init.constprop.11+0x91/0x110 > [<ffffffff81675699>] ? __ip_vs_ftp_init+0xf4/0xf4 > [<ffffffff811a60fc>] register_pernet_operations.isra.8+0x6c/0xc0 > [<ffffffff811a61e0>] register_pernet_subsys+0x20/0x40 > [<ffffffff81675593>] ? ip_vs_sed_init+0x12/0x12 > [<ffffffff816756a9>] ip_vs_ftp_init+0x10/0x12 > [<ffffffff810001ca>] do_one_initcall+0x3a/0x160 > [<ffffffff81654bae>] kernel_init+0x9b/0x115 > [<ffffffff81298bf4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 > [<ffffffff81654b13>] ? start_kernel+0x31d/0x31d > [<ffffffff81298bf0>] ? gs_change+0xb/0xb > Code: f8 48 89 f3 4c 8b a7 40 09 00 00 e8 e1 a6 ff ff 48 c7 c7 80 ab 62 81 e8 25 30 0b 00 49 8b 84 24 08 01 00 00 48 c7 c7 80 ab 62 81 <48> 89 58 08 48 89 03 49 8d 84 24 08 01 00 00 48 89 43 08 49 89 > RIP [<ffffffff811e21ba>] register_ip_vs_app+0x3a/0x70 > RSP <ffff880002039df0> > ---[ end trace 3e5d9bede957f8b4 ]--- > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- Regards Hans Schillstrom <hans.schillstrom@xxxxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe lvs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
