Hello Andrea, or anyone else affected, Accepted iproute2 into oracular-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iproute2/6.10.0-2ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- oracular to verification-done-oracular. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-oracular. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: iproute2 (Ubuntu Oracular) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-oracular -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to iproute2 in Ubuntu.

However, we cannot disable this feature in HWE/backport kernels, so it seems safer to adjust the Ubuntu FAN kernel patch set to ensure proper co-existence with the updated vxlan policy requirements in newer 6.8 kernels. The re-introduction of Ubuntu FAN should be considered as a temporary measure, aimed at facilitating a smooth transition during its deprecation without disrupting existing users (specifically Juju), and enabling the backporting of 6.8 kernels to older releases. The main plan is still to deprecate Ubuntu FAN at some point in the future. [Test case] Rely on the specific Ubuntu FAN regression test to validate the proper kernel support of this feature: https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+git/autotest-client- tests/tree/ubuntu_fan_smoke_test?h=autotest3 [Fix] Re-apply the Ubuntu FAN patch set to the latest Noble kernel 6.8 and integrate the IFLA_VXLAN_FAN_MAP attribute type in vxlan_policy to satisfy the strict length validation check. [Regression potential] We may experience regressions with eBPF vxlan capabilities and potentially specific use cases of the Ubuntu FAN technology (Juju installations).
