Looks like situation is that multiple people including myself tried to contact Ralf due to 'half/mis-applied' MIPS BPF JIT in [1,2] that sits currently in Linus tree, but never got a reply back since mid June. Given the work was accepted long ago but incorrectly merged, would be great if this could still be fixed up with this patch. Given Ralf seems unfortunately unresponsive, is there a chance, if people are fine with it, that we could try route this fix e.g. via -net instead before a final v4.13? Anyway, the generic pieces interacting with core BPF look good to me: Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann Thanks, Daniel [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=f381bf6d82f032b7410185b35d000ea370ac706b [2] https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/16369/
