This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ipv4: fix possible seqlock deadlock to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.15. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From bdd05946880135bc816ad90e817f191a327be0a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2013 13:37:54 -0800 Subject: ipv4: fix possible seqlock deadlock [ Upstream commit c9e9042994d37cbc1ee538c500e9da1bb9d1bcdf ] ip4_datagram_connect() being called from process context, it should use IP_INC_STATS() instead of IP_INC_STATS_BH() otherwise we can deadlock on 32bit arches, or get corruptions of SNMP counters.
