This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tcp_metrics: fix addr_same() helper to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: tcp_metrics-fix-addr_same-helper.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 826092f3bf5fc15cb80742a236be21e8fe528b07 Author: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 2 13:14:55 2023 +0000 tcp_metrics: fix addr_same() helper [ Upstream commit e6638094d7af6c7b9dcca05ad009e79e31b4f670 ] Because v4 and v6 families use separate inetpeer trees (respectively net->ipv4.peers and net->ipv6.peers), inetpeer_addr_cmp(a, b) assumes a & b share the same family. tcp_metrics use a common hash table, where entries can have different families. We must therefore make sure to not call inetpeer_addr_cmp() if the families do not match.
