I'd like to note that I tested/verified BOTH these kernel version in their respective Proposed states that have the ipvs fix. We really most need the 16.04 4.15 hwe kernel released, which appears to be in progress but this is a bionic bug so its unclear if another step is required. These

The test kernel supplied for the 4.15 kernel in the 18.04LTS release fixed the identical issue there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1819786 With our wider 16.04 deployment with the HWE 4.15 kernel we'd especially wish to see the same version of the fix applied here too.

Well, my apologies. I retract my skepticism! Your referenced -47 kernel above appears to have fixed the problem, while the stock -47 kernel showed the failure when I tested it this evening first (I already had the distributed 4.15.0-47 kernel installed, then I removed it and installed your

Thanks for getting back to me on this. Sorry for the slow response, did not get (or see?) an email notification about an update. I'll try the -47 kernel you referenced but I'm skeptical since the failure occurs on the -46 and the -47 doesn't show any changelog for the ipvs refcount issue. Nor

Joseph, the commits you've included appear to be correct to me. I've tested this kernel as best I can without the dbgsym package. I really could use that package so I could verify the performance with "perf" as well as use "systemtap" to verify stuff is going down the right paths. But I did use
