Description Alexander Holler 2012-02-11 08:48:51 UTC

Hello,

I've written two patches for libipvs which is used in ipvsadm and keepalived.

One is necessary to see running ipvs-backup-threads in ipvsadm, and one is necessary to use ipv6 with keepalived.

Both patches are based on keepalived 1.22 but should apply to older version too.
Both patches should be applied to ipvsadm too (its having it's own copy of libipvs).

I've added a third patch too, which is necessary to start keepalived when the module for ipvs (ip_vs) was not loaded before.


Reproducible: Always

Comment 4 Alexander Holler 2012-02-11 08:53:18 UTC

I'm not sure if the names of attachments are saved, they are:

0001-libipvs-Fix-initialization-of-netlink-needed-for-IPv.patch
0001-libipvs-Fix-reporting-of-the-state-of-the-backup-dae.patch
0001-Fix-modprobe-arguments.patch

The first twoshouldbe applied to ipvsadm too, I will file a separate bug.

Comment 5 Alexander Holler 2012-02-11 09:05:49 UTC

I've reported my two patches upstream too (the third was already reported by someone else), but it seems upstream currently doesn't have much time. So I suggest to update keepalived to 1.2.2 and to apply at least those 3 patches.

Comment 6 Greg 2012-02-11 13:53:30 UTC

I can confirm these issues, and that the attached patches resolve the issues described.
