This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

The patches fix a bug that prevents a user from following an interface that moves to another netns. These commits are also needed in Xenial. However, they will be sent in a separate SRU request due to additional prereq commits being needed for Xenial. == Fixes == b2d3bcfa26a7 ("net: core: Expose number of link up/down transitions") c36ac8e23073 ("dev: always advertise the new nsid when the netns iface changes") 38e01b30563a ("dev: advertise the new ifindex when the netns iface changes") == Regression Potential == Medium due to three patches needed and the changes to core networking. == Test Case == A test kernel was built with these patches and tested by the original bug reporter. The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug. The following upstream patches are missing (v4.16): 6621dd29eb9b ("dev: advertise the new nsid when the netns iface changes") c36ac8e23073 ("dev: always advertise the new nsid when the netns iface changes") 38e01b30563a ("dev: advertise the new ifindex when the netns iface changes") https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=6621dd29eb9b https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c36ac8e23073 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=38e01b30563a To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1774225/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
