Subject: [ofa-general] [PATCH V3 2/7] IB/ipoib: Verify address handle validity on send
Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2007 15:49:43 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46ADDE67.7030502@voltaire.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <46ADDB89.5030601@voltaire.com>

When the bonding device senses a carrier loss of its active slave it replaces
that slave with a new one. In between the times when the carrier of an IPoIB
device goes down and ipoib_neigh is destroyed, it is possible that the 
bonding driver will send a packet on a new slave that uses an old ipoib_neigh.
This patch detects and prevents this from happenning.
