I know it is rather late in the release cycle, but the fixes are pretty small and they were worth being sent now. Patch 1/2 fixes an overflow of a u32 variable that may happen while computing the metric to select the best batman-GW in the network. ** It would be great if this patch could be queued for inclusion in any stable release >= 3.2 Patch 2/2 prevents the Distributed ARP Table from forging unwanted ARP replies on behalf of another host that may fool an Ethernet switch sitting behind batman-adv. ** It would be great if this patch could be queued for inclusion in any stable release >= 3.8 Please pull or let me know if something is wrong Thanks a lot, Antonio The following changes since commit ac0a72a3e6e8d817f60ce4d9a8f3b43dc256d847: net/mlx4_core: Disable Granular QoS per VF under IB/Eth VPI configuration (2015-06-15 16:42:57 -0700) are available in the git repository at: git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge.git tags/batman-adv-fix-for-davem for you to fetch changes up to c065d51055924f6daad8e16307c364602b0f9805: batman-adv: avoid DAT to mess up LAN state (2015-06-16 11:13:12 +0200) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Included changes: - fix gateway selection metric overflow - avoid the Distriubted ARP Table to fool Ethernet switches by forging unexpected packets ---------------------------------------------------------------- Antonio Quartulli (1): batman-adv: avoid DAT to mess up LAN state Ruben Wisniewski (1): batman-adv: Avoid u32 overflow during gateway select net/batman-adv/distributed-arp-table.c | 18 +++++++++++++----- net/batman-adv/gateway_client.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)
