RHEL7: System crash due bad dst entry

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Over unknown conditions machine crashes and then restarts
  • multiple crashes occur with different back traces but all seem to be related to bad dst entries cached in sk->sk_dst_cache.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
  • TCP
    • not limited to but especially short lived TCP connections like for haproxy
  • ICMP routing redirects
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is not affected.
