Subject: Request for "ip_tunnels: allow VXLAN/GENEVE to inherit TOS/TTL from VLAN" in v5.4 / v5.15
Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2023 11:43:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f220c0e0-446c-58bd-eabb-0dee9819dd53@6wind.com> (raw)
Hi,
I would like to request for cherry-picking commit 7074732c8fae ("ip_tunnels:
allow VXLAN/GENEVE to inherit TOS/TTL from VLAN") in linux-5.15.y and
linux-5.4.y branches.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=7074732c8fae
This commit has lived since a long time in upstream (11 months), the potential
regressions seems low. The cherry-pick is straightforward.
It fixes the vxlan tos inherit option when vlan frames are encapsulated in vxlan.
The kernel 5.4 and 5.15 are used by a lot of vendors, having this patch will fix
this bug.
Regards,
Nicolas
