Subject: [PATCH 2.6.25] cxgb3: Handle ARP completions that mark neighbors stale.
Date: Wed, 06 Feb 2008 12:05:19 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080206180519.4680.34741.stgit@dell3.ogc.int> (raw)


cxgb3: Handle ARP completions that mark neighbors stale.

When ARP completes due to a request rather than a reply the neighbor is
marked NUD_STALE instead of reachable (see arp_process()).  The handler
for the resulting netevent needs to check also for NUD_STALE.

Failure to use the arp entry can cause RDMA connection failures.
