Subject: 4.19.y stable request: nat soft lockup fix
Date: Wed, 2 Feb 2022 15:57:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Yfqb6BKXBqrkMkBa@strlen.de> (raw)

Sasha, Greg,

Could you queue following two commits for 4.19.y tree?

6ed5943f8735e2b778d92ea4d9805c0a1d89bc2b
netfilter: nat: remove l4 protocol port rovers

a504b703bb1da526a01593da0e4be2af9d9f5fa8
netfilter: nat: limit port clash resolution attempts

This resolves softlockup when most of the ephemeral ports
are in use.

Its also needed on older kernels but unfortunately they
won't apply as-is. We will try to get modified backports
for older releases and forward them to stable@ later.


Thanks,
Florian
