A pointed out by Shin Hong, IPVS doesn't always use atomic operations in an atomic manner. While this seems unlikely to be manifest in strange behaviour, it seems appropriate to clean this up. Cc: 홍신 shin hong <redacted> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
Applied, thanks.
if (af == AF_INET && (ip_vs_sync_state & IP_VS_STATE_MASTER) && (((cp->protocol != IPPROTO_TCP || cp->state == IP_VS_TCP_S_ESTABLISHED) && - (atomic_read(&cp->in_pkts) % sysctl_ip_vs_sync_threshold[1] + (pkts % sysctl_ip_vs_sync_threshold[1]
It seems that proc_do_sync_threshold() should check whether this value is zero. The current checks also look racy since incorrect values are first updated, then overwritten again. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
