This series of patches arise from discovering that: ipvsadm --start-daemon backup --mcast-group IPv6_address ... would always fail. The first patch resolves the problem. The second and third patches are optimizations that were noticed while investigating the original problem. The fourth patch adds a lock which appears to have been omitted, and the final patch adds the recently added sync daemon multicast parameters to the log messages that are written when the sync daemons start. Quentin Armitage (5): ipvs: Enable setting IPv6 multicast address for ipvs sync daemon backup ipvs: Stop calling __dev_get_by_name() repeatedly when starting sync daemon ipvs: Don't check result < 0 after setting result = 0 ipvs: Lock socket before setting SK_CAN_REUSE ipvs: log additional sync daemon parameters net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_sync.c | 107 ++++++++++++++++++++------------------- 1 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-) -- 1.7.7.6 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
