** Description changed:

- Attn. Canonical:  Please make sure that the existing iproute2 package
- gets updated with the two referenced patches as the missing information
- is impacting our standard test suites.
+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * An explanation of the effects of the bug on users and
+ 
+  * justification for backporting the fix to the stable release.
+ 
+  * In addition, it is helpful, but not required, to include an
+    explanation of how the upload fixes this bug.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug
+ 
+  * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected
+    package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes
+    the problem.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * discussion of how regressions are most likely to manifest as a result
+ of this change.
+ 
+  * It is assumed that any SRU candidate patch is well-tested before
+    upload and has a low overall risk of regression, but it's important
+    to make the effort to think about what ''could'' happen in the
+    event of a regression.
+ 
+  * This both shows the SRU team that the risks have been considered,
+    and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the SRU.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+  
+  * Anything else you think is useful to include
+  * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and 
the Technical Board
+  * and address these questions in advance
+

  Thanks.

  I found upstream already had patches that fix this problem:
  
  1) https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg415009.html
  commit 530903dd9003492edb0714e937ad4a5d1219e376

+     ip: fix igmp parsing when iface is long
  
-     Entries with long vhost names in /proc/net/igmp have no whitespace
-     between name and colon, so sscanf() adds it to vhost and
-     'ip maddr show iface' doesn't include inet result.

-     Commit 530903dd9003 ("ip: fix igmp parsing when iface is long") uses
-     variable len to keep trailing colon from interface name comparison.  This
-     variable is local to loop body but we set it in one pass and use it in
-     following one(s) so that we are actually using (pseudo)random length for
-     comparison. This became apparent since commit b48a1161f5f9 ("ipmaddr: 
Avoid
-     accessing uninitialized data") always initializes len to zero so that the
-     name comparison is always true. As a result, "ip maddr show dev eth0" 
shows
-     IPv4 multicast addresses for all interfaces.

-     Instead of keeping the length, let's simply replace the trailing colon 
with
-     a null byte. The bonus is that we get correct interface name in ma.name.

  The fix is in the same place, but different way.
  This is the current implementation In ip/ipmaddr.c file:
-                 struct ma_info *ma;
+                 struct ma_info *ma;
  
-                 if (buf[0] != '\t') {
-                         size_t len;
+                 if (buf[0] != '\t') {
+                         size_t len;
  
-                         sscanf(buf, "%d%s", &m.index, m.name);
-                         len = strlen(m.name);
-                         if (m.name[len - 1] == ':')
-                                 m.name[len - 1] = '\0';
-                         continue;
-                 }
- 
+                         sscanf(buf, "%d%s", &m.index, m.name);
+                         len = strlen(m.name);
+                         if (m.name[len - 1] == ':')
+                                 m.name[len - 1] = '\0';
+                         continue;
+                 }
  
  The existing "ip" command that shows the problem:
  [root@coral-sriov-host1 ip]# /usr/sbin/ip maddr show dev enP1p12s0f0   /* <-- 
We do NOT see the IPv4 maddr */
  2:      enP1p12s0f0
-         link  01:00:5e:00:00:01
-         inet6 ff02::1
-         inet6 ff01::1
+         link  01:00:5e:00:00:01
+         inet6 ff02::1
+         inet6 ff01::1
  
  I clone the latest "ip" utility from upstream to the same test box.
  [root@coral-sriov-host1 git_iproute2]# git clone 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git
  
  I build the "ip" utility on same test box, which has the above 2 patches
  included.
  
  [root@coral-sriov-host1 ip]# /root/git_iproute2/iproute2/ip/ip maddr show dev 
enP1p12s0f0  /* <--- shows correct IPv4 maddr */
  2:      enP1p12s0f0
-         link  01:00:5e:00:00:01
-         inet  224.0.0.1    /* <--- */
