From 709e1b5cd9e1915ad4f6c470ebf6b55d4a911d8c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joakim Tjernlund Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2012 08:12:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] bridge: message age needs to increase, not decrease. commit bridge: send proper message_age in config BPDU added this gem: bpdu.message_age = (jiffies - root->designated_age) p->designated_age = jiffies + bpdu->message_age; Notice how bpdu->message_age is negated when reassigned to bpdu.message_age. This causes message age to decrease breaking the STP protocol. Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-format-patch failed
