Hi,
Hi, thanks for the email - I canb recreate this very easily here
now. I have also shown that it the problem doesnt happen
on a kernel from Feb 25th, but does happen on a kernel from
this week.
I assume both are stable/8? Are you sure on the Feb 25th kernel
doing ok or could it be that you are just more lucky?
cery easy to demonstarte - set up 2 machines. Ping one
from the other so that it is pinging nicely. Then delete the ndp
entry. The ping freezes - sometimes for 20 seconds! It
eventually starts again with all the inrtervening packets lost.
This only happens if the machone being oinged is running the
newer kernel. If you do it the other way round then all
is fine.
Yes, that would make sense from what I have just observed elsewhere.
So I guess my question about the Feb 25th kernel is irrelevant but
getting a confirmation on the branch would be good.
I would assume that if you have both machines running the newer kernel
and would start ping6 from both things would also start working
immediately.
