SCTP problem on fedora 18

+1 vote
487 views

When I use multi-home function to setup link between 2 fedora 18 hosts, I can not use sctp_sendmsg to send any message and return error "Invalid Parameters" . but the same program runs well in Centos 6.

And the most wired thing is when I run Server side in centos and run Client side in fedora, I have the problem, but everything is fine when I run client side in centos but run server side on fedora.

Does anyone has the same problem?

what's the version ??
commented Jul 8, 2013 by anonymous
The version is 1.0.11. this is also fedora 18 provided by default.
BTW, I use lksctp 1.0.15, the latest lib, to make a test, it looks  everything is fine. I don't know if any significant change happened from 1.0.11 to 1.0.15.

ping -R on Fedora 18 does not work (firewall problem)

When I try:

 ping -R www.google.com

I get:

PING www.google.com (173.194.113.112) 56(124) bytes of data.

but the list of nodes does not appear, and I wait for more than 5 minutes. traceroute www.google.com gives immediately the list of nodes.

This is fedora 18, iptables stopped (and flushed), firewalld stopped.Could it be somehow due to not flushing firewalld rules ? (I don't know much about firewalld)

Is SO_REUSEPORT socket option supported in SCTP?

The SO_REUSEPORT socket option was introduced in mainstream kernel 3.9 for TCP/UDP. Is this option supported for SCTP also?

The latest centos6 kernel 2.6.32-417.el6 allows this socket option for SCTP, but does not seem to support it. I get port already in use error.

Fedora 18 under Hyper-V on Server 2012

I have been persuaded to move an application running under linux on to a Hyper-V VM. I am having significant performance issues and hope some one can cast some light on them.

I am having to run on a legacy network card as the 'synthetic' NIC gives poor through put. This gives a drop of about 50% compared with the original machine.

Disc I/O is down by a factor of 8 when copying significant amounts of data. (say 7 Gbyte) The application originally ran on Fedora 15 on an HP DL385 (8-cores) with 8Gbyte memory. The VM is running under Fedora 18 on a Dell R520 with 8 Gbyte with a fixed VHD disc

Am I correct in assuming that Fedora 18 kernel has the latest Microsoft Integration Modules?

lpr font on Fedora-18

Is there a simple way of changing the font used by lpr to print out a text file,
after say "lpr foo.txt" on a Fedora-18 CUPS printer?

The font in my case is much too small for my eyesight.

SCTP: Problem with a host having an UNREACHABLE address ?

I test my SCTP messaging small application between two hosts far away one from another, with possible packet loss on the net. Each of them is advertising two different [IPv4] addresses, but in fact, on one host, one IP isn't actually connected and can't be used for messages.

When I start SCTP messages exchanges, the hosts are using the first address, which is working, and messages are correctly transmitted. On the peer of the failing-IP host, I get notifications that this IP address is UNREACHABLE, it's correct. In fact, I get one notification each 100ms, but this can probably be setup.

The problem is that after some time of message exchanges, about 20 seconds, the hosts get a LOST notification for the association and no message can't be sent anymore until a new association is built.

Should I do something when I get a UNREACHABLE peer change notification? Is the LOST related to these UNREACHABLE notifications, or should I look for other cause ? I didn't saw this behavior during my tests (on virtual hosts)...
