I trigger it in this way (ip_vs in kernel, ip_vs_ftp as module): if (1 || ip_vs_app_net_init(net) < 0) goto app_fail; This causes ip_vs core to fail.

So, this check for ip_vs_ftp is not needed anymore: > diff --git a/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c b/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c > index 538d74e..c757359 100644 > --- a/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c > +++ b/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c > @@ -439,6 +439,9 @@ static int __net_init __ip_vs_ftp_init(struct net *net) > struct ip_vs_app *app; > struct netns_ipvs *ipvs = net_ipvs(net); > > + if (!ipvs) > + return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); > + > app = kmemdup(&ip_vs_ftp, sizeof(struct ip_vs_app), GFP_KERNEL); > if (!app) > return -ENOMEM; > > diff --git a/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblc.c b/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblc.c > index 74c7278..1d74996 100644 > --- a/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblc.c > +++ b/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblc.c > @@ -549,6 +549,9 @@ static int __net_init __ip_vs_lblc_init(struct net *net) > { > struct netns_ipvs *ipvs = net_ipvs(net); > > + if (!ipvs) > + return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); You can post additional patches for lblc and lblcr but use 'return -ENOENT;', ERR_PTR is not appropriate here, it is for pointers. > + > if (!net_eq(net, &init_net)) { > ipvs->lblc_ctl_table = kmemdup(vs_vars_table, > sizeof(vs_vars_table), > diff --git a/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.c b/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.c > index 8620c68..c328ee0 100644 > --- a/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.c > +++ b/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.c > @@ -743,6 +743,9 @@ static int __net_init __ip_vs_lblcr_init(struct net *net) > { > struct netns_ipvs *ipvs = net_ipvs(net); > > + if (!ipvs) > + return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); > + > if (!net_eq(net, &init_net)) { > ipvs->lblcr_ctl_table = kmemdup(vs_vars_table, > sizeof(vs_vars_table), Regards -- Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx> -- 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
