Message-ID: <4B86DDCB.50608@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2010 15:30:03 -0500 From: William Allen Simpson <william.allen.simpson@...il.com> To: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> CC: Linux Kernel Developers <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, Linux Kernel Network Developers <netdev@...r.kernel.org>, David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [PATCH 0/7] tcp: bugs and cleanup for 2.6.33 I'd have thought that there would be greater interest about patching crashing bugs, signed versus unsigned (underflow) bugs, TCP DoS bugs, TCP data corruption, and TCP performance problems.... Combination of patches reported in October, November, December, January, and February, for 2.6.32 and now 2.6.33. This code has had previous review and several months of limited testing. Some portions were removed during the various TCPCT part 1 patch splits, then were cut off by the sudden unexpected end of that merge window. [03 Dec 2009] I've restarted the sub-numbering (again). Of particular interest are the TCPCT header extensions that already appear in the next phase of testing with other platforms. These patches allow correct reception without data corruption. The remainder of the original TCPCT part 2 will be merged with part 3. [Updated to 2010 Feb 24 2.6.33 release.] -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
