any news on that? Systems still crashing every now and then. 3.0.13
was released today but i haven't seen any of them.

I only had time to submit these fixes for 3.1.x-stable, you'll just
have to be incredibly patient.

this bug sadly still makes the actual STABLE tree of the kernel
unusable. I mean nearly everbody uses TCP/IP.

"this bug"?

Actually, like Greg, I cannot figure out which fix you are referring
to.

You haven't provided enough context, and even searching into the
mailing list archives I cannot find a link into the real history of
this discussion thread.

sorry about beeing so unspecific.

I'm talking about:
[171464.091567] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 
000000000000002c
[171464.092073] IP: [<ffffffff815494f6>] ipv4_dst_check+0xb6/0x190

[171464.092073] Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP

Which is caused by: ipv4: fix lockdep splat in rt_cache_seq_show
	
This is the patchset you made for 3.1:

So we're talking AT LEAST about these ones:

Greets and thanks!
