Subject: Trivial module unload problem in 2.6.12-rc5[-mm1]
Date: Sat, 28 May 2005 21:17:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4298C3DC.5040100@exmsft.com> (raw)

I've found a trivial module unload problem in the 2.6.12-rc5 and (-mm1)
kernels.

net/ipv4/multipath_drr.c can cause an oops soon after unloading. Its
module init routine calls multipath_alg_register() with the incorrect
IP_MP_ALG_RR value, but its module exit routine calls
multipath_alg_deregister() with the *correct* IP_MP_ALG_DRR value.

Easy fix:

Thanks,
