You have been subscribed to a public bug: I run 16.04, and I keep daily track of all dist-upgrades. Yesterday (3 july 2018) there was an upgrade, and it must have been a kernel upgrade, because my machine had rebooted (which I make it do automatically if needed).
>From today, the system tests on my project have stopped working (C development). These system tests do the following: using the 'ip' command, they set up several network namespaces, in which I run several executables concurrently, that exchange network messages with each other. The namespaces that use IP have kept on working, while the ones that don't (I'm implementing an ethernet network packet structure of my own) have stopped working. I've done the same tests on my laptop, which is also a 16.04, on which I haven't done the upgrade (and I'm very hesitant to do so now, because this is my bread and butter), and there they work still. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Network namespaces support for non-IP suddenly missing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1780103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
