Subject:   Panic (race condition?) in ipsec_process_done
Message-ID:  <20060403184402.9DA3EDCAC70@mail.npubs.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I've been experiencing a panic in ipsec_process_done. Below is a
backtrace and a patch which supresses the issue. I don't profess to
understand the IPSec code completely...

The panic occurs when performing IKE negotiations (racoon) with multiple
systems at the same time. The panicing boxes are routers, and running a
slow CPU so negotiations take several seconds.

Immediately after boot and while IKE is going on the system panics.
Needless to say after the reboot (after panic) IKE happens again and
this results in a the box rebooting over and over.

I'm guessing this a is due to a halfway setup IPSec keys.

For me this issue only happens on production systems, so debugging is
very difficult, but I've managed to get a kernel dump and backtrace.

The patch (below) is probably incomplete, but prevents the problem from
happening for me.
