This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rocker: set FDB cleanup timer according to lowest ageing time to the 4.5-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: rocker-set-fdb-cleanup-timer-according-to-lowest-ageing-time.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.5 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Sat Apr 16 09:15:18 PDT 2016 From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 8 Mar 2016 12:59:34 -0800 Subject: rocker: set FDB cleanup timer according to lowest ageing time From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 88de1cd457e5cb664d6d437e2ea4750d089165f5 ] In rocker, ageing time is a per-port attribute, so the next time the FDB cleanup timer fires should be set according to the lowest ageing time. This will later allow us to delete the BR_MIN_AGEING_TIME macro, which was added to guarantee minimum ageing time in the bridge layer, thereby breaking existing behavior.
