> In commit 1f66d161ab3d8b518903fa6c3f9c1f48d6919e74 > ("tipc: introduce starvation free send algorithm") > we introduced a counter per priority level for buffers > in the link backlog queue. We also introduced a new > function tipc_link_purge_backlog(), to reset these > counters to zero when the link is reset. > > Unfortunately, we missed to call this function when > the broadcast link is reset, with the result that the > values of these counters might be permanently skewed > when new nodes are attached. This may in the worst case > lead to permananent, but spurious, broadcast link > congestion, where no broadcast packets can be sent at > all. > > We fix this bug with this commit. > > Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.ma...@ericsson.com> Applied, thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
