From: Sven Eckelmann Date: Wed, 20 Dec 2017 16:55:17 +0100 Subject: ebtables: Use flock() for --concurrent option The previous locking mechanism was not atomic, hence it was possible that a killed ebtables process would leave the lock file in place which in turn made future ebtables processes wait indefinitely for the lock to become free. Fix this by using flock(). This also simplifies code quite a bit because there is no need for a custom signal handler or an __exit routine anymore. diff --git a/package/network/utils/ebtables/patches/300-fix-concurrent.patch b/package/network/utils/ebtables/patches/300-fix-concurrent.patch new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1a99162bf51cd175e26d49e7ee5277b8b8645f48 --- /dev/null +++ b/package/network/utils/ebtables/patches/300-fix-concurrent.patch @@ -0,0 +1,127 @@ +From 6a826591878db3fa9e2a94b87a3d5edd8e0fc442 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 +From: Phil Sutter +Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2017 12:48:50 +0200 +Subject: Use flock() for --concurrent option + +The previous locking mechanism was not atomic, hence it was possible +that a killed ebtables process would leave the lock file in place which +in turn made future ebtables processes wait indefinitely for the lock to +become free. + +Fix this by using flock().
