https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=210286 Bug ID: 210286 Summary: Traceroute6 does not timeout in the continued presence of echo replies Product: Base System Version: 10.3-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dennypage@me.com Created attachment 171445 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=171445&action=edit Diff to fix traceroute6 If traceroute6 is run and one of the hops is not responding, receipt of an IPv6 ICMP echo reply will cause traceroute6 to re-execute the wait on the current probe. If echo replies are coming in at a rate faster than the timeout, traceroute6 will essentially wait forever on the non responding hop. This can be easily reproduced using ping6 and traceroute6 simultaneously in the presence of non responsive hops. A diff which corrects the problem is attached. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
