Hi,

The ipvs 1.0.2 tar ball is available on the LVS website. It has some
serious bugfixes, so please upgrade to this version if you use the 0.9.x
or 1.0.x for kernel 2.4 on the SMP box. The ChangeLog is as follows:

IP Virtual Server Netfilter module - Version 1.0.3 - May 30, 2002

Changes:
        * Fixed the typo (it should be "-f" in the fwmark example) in
        ipvsadm man page. Thank George L Chamales <chamales@xxxxxxxxxx>
        for pointing it out.

        * Julian added the checking of outgoing device hardware header
        length in the DR and NAT transmitters. If the hardware header
        length is larger than the skb_headroom(skb), then expand the skb
        data so that it can hold the hardware header. It fixes up the
        problem in Ethernet & TokenRing mixed cluster reported by
        Richard.Newman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

        * Julian fixed the locking bug in the ip_vs_stats_get_info(), by
        changing the spin_[un]lock calls to the spin_[un]lock_bh. This bug
        may lockup the SMP box, when the "/proc/net/ip_vs_stats" is read
        and the system is under load at the same time.

        * Added the skb nonlinear checking and headroom checking for
        outgoing device hardware header in the ip_vs_bypass_xmit too.


As always, bugreports, fixes, comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Wensong
