2019-02-20 22:17:15 Nish Aravamudan description So I think this commit: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/6a9e461f6fe4434e6172304b69774daff9a3ac4c has been backported to some -stable trees. This makes lldpd < 1.0.3 duplicate entries. I think given both -stable trees in existing Ubuntu and the HWE stack in 18.04 (even if only 18.04.3), we should backport https://github.com/vincentbernat/lldpd/pull/307/commits/0638075c721323aa6aeab9c6ab282861f53c9f2f to the source package in 18.04+. [Impact] lldpctl indicates duplicate LLDP records. [Test Case] On a system with a bonded link, issue: # lldpctl | grep PortDescr and it will indicate duplicate records. After applying the fix, issue the same command and duplicates will be elided. [Regression Potential] The above issue is only seen on kernels newer than 4.19 (so 19.04+, which implies 18.04.3's kernel). However, the bond-specific code in lldpctl is only needed on kernels <= 2.6.27 per upstream, which is older than any kernel in any supported Ubuntu. This fix allows future-proofs lldpctl for the eventual HWE impact. [Original Description] So I think this commit: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/6a9e461f6fe4434e6172304b69774daff9a3ac4c has been backported to some -stable trees.
