Hi Eric: I check this patch: [root@localhost linux]# git name-rev fbd40ea0180a2d328c5adc61414dc8bab9335ce2 fbd40ea0180a2d328c5adc61414dc8bab9335ce2 tags/v4.6-rc1~91^2~63 So the kernel4.7-RC4 already has this patch, but it have no effort if I revert the commit aaf92f(netfilter: conntrack: resched in nf_ct_iterate_cleanup), So I don't think David's patch could fix this problem.
