Subject: [Cluster-devel] [PATCH] dlm: clear out addrs before calling into corosync
Date: Fri, 05 Sep 2014 09:47:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <54097884.9010807@redhat.com> (raw)

The corosync_cfg_get_node_addrs() call does not fill the whole of the 
addrs field passed in, specifically it only writes the the address 
family and IP address, leaving the port number untouched.

If the port number contains junk, then that can get passed into the 
kernel by dlm_controld where it is subsequently used in the comparison 
that checks for valid cluster nodes in a connection. If this happens 
then an otherwise valid connection can be rejected and the dlm will hang.

I've seen this quite often on s390 but I don't see any reason why it 
might not also be causing intermittent connection problems on other archs.
