This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ipv6: assign rt6_info to inet6_ifaddr in init_loopback 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 3.8.13.4. 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 9c8e6c08f8a9bbb0cdb5e54c2d8ce974fe334acb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Date: Sun, 2 Jun 2013 22:16:21 +0000 Subject: ipv6: assign rt6_info to inet6_ifaddr in init_loopback [ Upstream commit 534c877928a16ae5f9776436a497109639bf67dc ] Commit 25fb6ca4ed9cad72f14f61629b68dc03c0d9713f "net IPv6 : Fix broken IPv6 routing table after loopback down-up" forgot to assign rt6_info to the inet6_ifaddr. When disable the net device, the rt6_info which allocated in init_loopback will not be destroied in __ipv6_ifa_notify. This will trigger the waring message below [23527.916091] unregister_netdevice: waiting for tap0 to become free.
