[PATCH 4.9 13/93] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Avoid potential packets loss

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Mar 20 2017 - 13:55:03 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit f7df4923fa986247e93ec2cdff5ca168fff14dcf ]

When the structure of the LPM tree changes (f.e., due to the addition of
a new prefix), we unbind the old tree and then bind the new one. This
may result in temporary packet loss.

Instead, overwrite the old binding with the new one.
