Even in the recent -beta one can crash ospf6d easily, just by typing # ifconfig vlan7 vlan 7 vlandev <your-if> even in the simplest of possible setups. I run this diff on a production router where vlans are being added dynamically from admin's web page, without any problem for two weeks. Is there any chance people won't have to patch tne 4.9-release? :-) What's the problem? Is it too complicated or have I missed something again? Thanks for any feedback. -- Martin Pelikan
