I saw this on the netfilter page. Maybe I forgot to say I have a dual cpu system. Can this be the source of my problems? Author: Patrick McHardy, <kaber@xxxxxxxxx> Status: Working This patch fixes a deadlock condition in conntrack/nat-helpers There is a possible deadlock condition with conntrack/nat-helpers: CPU1: conntrack-helper:help: lock(private_lock) ip_conntrack_expect_related: write_lock(ip_conntrack_lock) CPU2: nat-core:do_bindings: read_lock(ip_conntrack_lock) nat-helper:help: lock(private_lock) The lock in the nat-helper is unneccessary because the expectation is never changed and is protected by ip_conntrack_lock. How do I go about to implement this patch? I cannot find it patchomatic-ng, maybe I am doing it wrongly. Best regards Stian B. Barmen
