This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
net: refactor bind_bucket fastreuse into helper
to the 4.14-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:
net-refactor-bind_bucket-fastreuse-into-helper.patch
and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.
(...)
Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from tim.froidcoeur@xxxxxxxxxxxx are
queue-4.14/net-refactor-bind_bucket-fastreuse-into-helper.patch
Thank you for backporting this patch!
It seems the backport of the companion patch -- d76f3351cea2 ("net:
initialize fastreuse on inet_inherit_port") -- was lost somewhere for 4.14
version. It was backported in all other newer stable versions: 5.8, 5.7,
5.4, 4.19 but not in 4.14.
The patch backported here is a preparation for the real fix which is the
missing patch.
I guess the intention is to backport d76f3351cea2 to v4.14 as well. If not,
this refactoring is maybe not needed :)
Ugh, that was my fault, thanks for catching this. I've now queued this
up to 4.14.y.
Thank you for having added it!
All these backported patches look good to me!
Cheers,
Matt
