Hi Greg, I sent the below email to Sasha and stable@ this morning, but I forgot to CC you and can't find a copy of it on lore. So here goes a copy: On Mon, Sep 11, 2023 at 2:55 PM Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > 6.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. This commit is part of the following series https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230720-so-reuseport-v6-0-7021b683cdae@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ As far as I can tell this was pulled in due to the Fixes tag on patch 7. I think that tag was misguided, in that the original code explicitly rejected SO_REUSEPORT sockets so there isn't a bug to fix here. The SO_REUSEPORT code is quite fiddly, so I'm uneasy about backporting the change. Could you drop patches 3-8 from 5.15, 6.1, 6.4 and 6.5 please? Patch 1-2 are good to backport. This also means that "net: remove duplicate INDIRECT_CALLABLE_DECLARE of udp[6]_ehashfn" is not required anymore. Sorry for the mess, Lorenz
