IPv6 neighbor discovery issues on 4.18

2018-08-31 Thread Brian Rak
We've upgraded a few machines to a 4.18.3 kernel and we're running into weird IPv6 neighbor discovery issues.  Basically, the machines stop responding to inbound IPv6 neighbor solicitation requests, which very quickly breaks all IPv6 connectivity. It seems like the routing table gets

Re: Missing IPv4 routes

(Existing email got kinda messy, starting over again): So, I'm having an issue with the kernel where if I add a bunch of routes, I see some of them go "missing". They don't show up in the 'ip -4 route' list, but they do show up if I do 'ip -4 route get X'. I managed to come up with a simple

have added a test that will force us to use child index 0 if the key we are looking for is less than the key of the current tnode. Fixes: 8be33e955cb9 ("fib_trie: Fib walk rcu should take a tnode and key instead of a trie and a leaf") Reported-by: Brian Rak <b...@gameservers.co

Missing IPv4 routes

2015-10-23 Thread Brian Rak
I've got a weird situation here. I have a route that the kernel knows about, but won't display via the general RTM_GETROUTE call, but will display if I query for that particular route: # ip -4 route show | grep 108.61.171.x # ip route get 108.61.171.x 108.61.171.x dev MYIF cache # cat

virtio-net TSO Lockup

2015-07-13 Thread Brian Rak
We've been encountering an issue in the virtio-net driver that cause it to become unresponsive after a period of high load. This issue goes away if we disable TSO on the interface. Once this issue has been triggered, the interface can still receive traffic, but will not transmit anything.
