Comment 5 for bug 1618299

Joseph, the commits you've included appear to be correct to me. I've tested this kernel as best I can without the dbgsym package. I really could use that package so I could verify the performance with "perf" as well as use "systemtap" to verify stuff is going down the right paths. But I did use the /proc/net/ipv6_route's lookups counter as an indication that excessive lookups, when routing generation changes were injected, were no longer occurring with your test kernel.

Bottom line: This test kernel looks like it has what we've been needing for our production servers, we'd appreciate any/all efforts for getting this into the earliest 3.13 kernel maintenance release you guys can manage.

Thanks!
