There's a reason why Greg maintains stable and LTS kernels :-)
Stable kernels don't crash but definiton. :-)

Does this happen also with Linus's tree?  I suggest you ask the
networking developers about this on netdev@vger.kernel.org, there's
nothing that I can do on my own about this, sorry.

Already CCed netdev and netfilter-devel mailinglist. Need patches for 
the switch driver of the banana Pi to get networking up but that patch 
is stable. Maybe also some patches from the Fedora SRPMS are needed. But 
I'm pretty sure that this also happens with plain vanilla kernel.

Hello Jozsef,

Patch applied well, compiling ...

Interesting, that it didn't happen before. Device is in production for 
more than 2 month without any issue.

Also any idea regarding the second isssue? Or do you think it has the 
same root cause?

Greetings from Vienna, Austria :-)

BTW: You can get the Banana Pi R1 for example at:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/BPI-R1-Set-1-R1-Board-Clear-Case-5dB-Antenna-Power-Adapter-Banana-PI-R1-Smart/32362127917.html
I can really recommend it as a router. Power consumption is as less as 
3W. Price is also IMHO very good.

Ciao,
Gerhard

Does it crash without counters? That could narrow down where to look for.

Hello Jozsef,

it doesn't crash i I don't use the counters so far. So there must be a 
bug with the counters.

Any idea for the root cause?

Thnx.

You mean the device was stable with the earlier kernels, but starting with

Looking at your RedHat bugzilla report, the "nf_conntrack: table full, 
dropping packet" and "Alignment trap: not handling instruction" are two 
unrelated issues and the second one is triggered by the unaligned counter 
extension acccess in ipset, I'm investigating. I can't think of any reason 
how those issues could be related to each other.

Yes, they are unrelated.
Issue 1: nf_conntrack: table full, dropping packet => Fixed with 4.2.4
Issue 2: Alignment trap: not handling instruction => Happens when ipset 
counters are enabled

Please keep in mind it happens with IPv6 commands.

Currently 4.2.4 without ipset counters runs well.

Gerhard

Requires also new userland ipset version.

Please integrate it upstream.

Thanx to Jozsef Kadlecsik for fixing it.

Ciao,

ipset *triggered* the problem. The whole stack dump would tell more.
OK, find the stack traces in the bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1272645

Kernel 4.1.10 triggered also a kernel dump when playing with ipset commands
and IPv6, details in the bug report  ....

Kernel 4.2 seems to me not well tested in the netfilter parts at all
(Bug with already known bugfix
https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2015/10/msg00034.html was
triggered on 2 of 3 of my machines, the new bug on 1 of 1 tested machine).
There's a reason why Greg maintains stable and LTS kernels :-)
Stable kernels don't crash but definiton. :-)

At least triggered 2 kernel panics in 5min, even with 4.1.10 and ipset
commands ...
Does this happen also with Linus's tree?  I suggest you ask the
networking developers about this on netdev@vger.kernel.org, there's
nothing that I can do on my own about this, sorry.
Patch is now available, see:
[PATCH 0/3] ipset patches for nf
https://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=144690007708041&w=2

https://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=144690007708039&w=2
[ANNOUNCE] ipset 6.27 released
https://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=144690048308099&w=2

Requires also new userland ipset version.

That's great, can you let me know the git commits that end up in Linus's
tree?  That's what we need for the stable kernel.

thanks,

I'll take care of that, this is already following its path to -stable,
will take a little while though as usual.
