Hi, We noticed that the patch 120f1c857a73 should be ported to 5.4, 5.10 and 5.15 LTS according to bug introducing commits. Also, they can be applied to the latest version of these three branches without conflicting. Its bug introducing commit is 9b52e3f267a6. According to our manual analysis, the commit (9b52e3f267a6) introduced a `WARN_ON_ONCE(!net);` statement in the `__skb_flow_dissect` function within `net/core/flow_dissector.c`. This change began triggering warnings (splat messages) when `net` is `NULL`, which can happen in legitimate use cases, such as when `__skb_get_hash()` is called by the nftables tracing infrastructure to identify packets in traces. The patch provided replaces this `WARN_ON_ONCE(!net);` with `DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE(!net);`, which is more appropriate for situations where `net` can be `NULL` without it indicating a critical issue. This change prevents unnecessary warning messages from appearing, which can clutter logs and potentially mask real issues. Therefore, the prior commit introduced the issue (the unnecessary warnings when `net` is `NULL`), and the patch fixes this by adjusting the warning mechanism. -- Yours sincerely, Xingyu
