Hi Willy,

Changelog from 2.4.32-hf32.1 to 2.4.32-hf32.2

Which of those are you going to push to Marcelo for inclusion?

I've found two subtle IPVS bugs (using a persistency setup on SMP combined with sharp TCP state transition timeouts), one of which is fixed in my tree and has been running in production for over 1 month now. The other is still in discussion phase with Horms and Julian Anastasov.

+ 2.4.32-bond_alb-hash-table-corruption-1                (ODonnell, Michael)

  Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug
  support in the various networking components. We've faulted in
  the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave().
  In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is
  made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can
  lead tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element.

This is correct. Funny, It never triggered on my systems, but I only have a bonding setup on three SMP systems, probably none of them using ALB.

Thanks for your hard work,
Roberto Nibali, ratz
