Expected behaviour: After getting an ICMPv6 too big packet, send only packets smaller than the MTU in given in that ICMPv6 packet to this host. Analysis: I get the impression that the table where the kernel keeps the PMTU to the IPv6 hosts it communicates with overflows over time, after a few weeks or months of uptime. It looks like entries in that table expire (because I do get the too big packets problem with hosts my hosts communicate with a lot, they certainly were in the table in the past), but that the place taken by expired entries is not freed up. Thus the table doesn't get new entries added when the ICMPv6 too big packet comes in and the TCP stack doesn't go back to smaller packets. The symptoms seen by the users is that e.g. a SSH or SMTP connection gets established OK, but once they start doing something big with it (like the DATA phase of the SMTP dialogue or doing an ls of a big directory in a ssh session), the connexion freezes. Once that effect kicks in, it affects all new IPv6 connections/hosts. A tcpdump shows that ICMPv6 too big packets come in, but that my host keeps sending too big packets. A reboot cures it. I vaguely remember that the first time this happened, I found some statistics file in /proc/ or /sys/ where one line said some table had 4095 entries, which led me to this analysis. Alas, when it happened again I could not remember what file that was and can't find it again now. I didn't report it at the time because the kernel run by this machine is rather old. But now it happened on a machine running 2.6.18-3-amd64, and echo 8192 /proc/sys/net/ipv6/route/max_size seems to have helped the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-amd64 Locale: LANG=fr_LU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_LU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) ---End Message--- ---BeginMessage--- Version: 2.6.24-1 On Sat, Jul 05, 2008 at 06:09:40AM +0200, Lionel Elie Mamane wrote: On Fri, Jul 04, 2008 at 10:54:03PM +0200, maximilian attems wrote: can you still reproduce that with an uptodate kernel at best 2.6.25? it has newer ipv6 with more features and fixes?

Bug#484565: /lib/modules/2.6.24-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko: Patch to enable Dell 1420 touch pad's scroll is not working
I'm sorry I forgot to update this thread.
There is no problem in the kernel, this bug must be closed.
The problem was that I was using the default xorg config file and that file
didn't had an entry for the synaptic driver. As soon as I modified the
xorg.conf and added the synaptic driver everything worked fine.
Thanks a lot, and once again, I'm sorry I forgot to report this was fixed.

*** Please type your report below this line ***
As noticed in bug report #452752
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=452752) there was a
need to patch the file drivers/input/mouse/alps.c in order to make the
touch pad's scroll work in some laptops.
At that time it was said that the patch was going to be included in the
2.6.24 kernel.
I installed Debian Lenny in a new Dell 1420 and after installation
upgraded the kernel to 2.6.24-1-amd64 but the touch pad's scroll does not
work. So I downloaded the kernel source to apply the patch that was
working in another Dell inspiron 1420 with kernel 2.6.22 and noticed that
the
patch was already applied but with a small change.
In the current 2.6.24 source the patched line (line 36) says:
{ { 0x73, 0x02, 0x50 }, 0xcf, 0xcf, ALPS_FW_BK_1 } /* Dell Vostro 1400
*/
However the patch I was applying to 2.6.22 says:
{ { 0x73, 0x02, 0x50 }, 0x4f, 0x4f, ALPS_FW_BK_1 } /* Dell Vostro 1400
*/
So I changed it, recompiled and reinstalled the mouse drivers, but the
scroll still doesn't work.
Then I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.25-2-amd64 but the scroll didn't work
either.
P.D.: Please don't pay attention to the hardy entry in APT policy it
appears because of a repository I must add in order to install
wxFormBuilder, there is no Debian package for that, but that repository
only
has the wxFormBuilder package.
can you try 2.6.26-rc8 snapshot builds?
see trunk apt lines - http://wiki.debian.org/DebianKernel

Bug#407217: RTL-8169 multicast bug
Twas brillig at 16:14:58 05.07.2008 UTC+01 when [EMAIL PROTECTED] did gyre and gimble: JD Sure -- I'm CCing debian-arm incase someone there has a n2100 JD running one of those kernels already -- it will take me days to JD build it :) JD Can someone verify that the rtl 8169 multicast bug is present on JD modern kernels: best way is to ensure your iface is not promisc, JD and run something like mt-daapd and see if after 30 minutes or so JD your share disappears from the network, and whether setting the JD iface to promisc fixes it. I confirm this bug. I run the avahi-daemon on the device and it does not respond on multicast queries until tcpdump is started and then it works fine. This behavior is repeatable even with BROADCAST flag on the interface (actually running tcpdump is critical due to some reason).

Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.24-7
Severity: normal
File: /lib/modules/2.6.24-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko
*** Please type your report below this line ***
As noticed in bug report #452752
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=452752) there was a
need to patch the file drivers/input/mouse/alps.c in order to make the
touch pad's scroll work in some laptops.
At that time it was said that the patch was going to be included in the
2.6.24 kernel.
I installed Debian Lenny in a new Dell 1420 and after installation
upgraded the kernel to 2.6.24-1-amd64 but the touch pad's scroll does not
work. So I downloaded the kernel source to apply the patch that was
working in another Dell inspiron 1420 with kernel 2.6.22 and noticed that
the
patch was already applied but with a small change.
In the current 2.6.24 source the patched line (line 36) says:
{ { 0x73, 0x02, 0x50 }, 0xcf, 0xcf, ALPS_FW_BK_1 } /* Dell Vostro 1400
*/
However the patch I was applying to 2.6.22 says:
{ { 0x73, 0x02, 0x50 }, 0x4f, 0x4f, ALPS_FW_BK_1 } /* Dell Vostro 1400
*/
So I changed it, recompiled and reinstalled the mouse drivers, but the
scroll still doesn't work.
Then I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.25-2-amd64 but the scroll didn't work
either.
P.D.: Please don't pay attention to the hardy entry in APT policy it
appears because of a repository I must add in order to install
wxFormBuilder, there is no Debian package for that, but that repository only
has the wxFormBuilder package.
