This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled team: don't traverse port list using rcu in team_set_mac_address to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt9. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 9f7dbd4035891470f0625dafac8cbe4c0127621d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2015 08:36:31 +0100 Subject: team: don't traverse port list using rcu in team_set_mac_address commit 9215f437b85da339a7dfe3db6e288637406f88b2 upstream. Currently the list is traversed using rcu variant. That is not correct since dev_set_mac_address can be called which eventually calls rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb and there, skb allocation can sleep. So fix this by remove the rcu usage here. Fixes: 3d249d4ca7 "net: introduce ethernet teaming device" Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: David S.
