PM ACK for U6
Test kernels available here: http://people.redhat.com/linville/kernels/rhel3/ Please give 'em a try and post the results here...thanks!
Definitely want (or need?) some customer feedback if this is going to get in...
Created attachment 116171 [details] jwltest-arp_announce.patch The relevant patch from the kernels in question...
I'd really like to hear some test results...?
It has been pointed-out that this breaks kABI for RHEL3, so it will _not_ go in without some major rework...
Would a global (i.e. _NOT_ per interface) setting be acceptable?
A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U7 patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-37.1.EL).
