[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Wei Wang <weiwan@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 31afeb425f7fad8bcf9561aeb0b8405479f97a98 ]

In current route cache aging logic, if a route has both RTF_EXPIRE and
RTF_GATEWAY set, the route will only be removed if the neighbor cache
has no NTF_ROUTER flag. Otherwise, even if the route has expired, it
won't get deleted.
Fix this logic to always check if the route has expired first and then
do the gateway neighbor cache check if previous check decide to not
remove the exception entry.

Fixes: 1859bac04fb6 ("ipv6: remove from fib tree aged out RTF_CACHE dst")
