Something is broken,\n completion won't come, just abort the rehash sequence.\n - If some other completion with error received, don't give up.\n Continue handling rest of the rules to minimize the damage.\n - Make sure that the first error code that was received will\n be actually returned to the caller instead of replacing it\n with the generic error code.\n\nAll the aforementioned issues stem from the same bad error flow,\nso no point fixing them one by one and leaving partially broken\ncode - fixing them in one patch."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "En el kernel de Linux, la siguiente vulnerabilidad ha sido resuelta:\n\nnet/mlx5: HWS, corregir el flujo de error de rehash de reglas complejas\n\nMover reglas de matcher a matcher no deber\u00eda fallar.\nSin embargo, si falla por diversas razones, el flujo de error\ndeber\u00eda permitir que el kernel siga funcionando (aunque con reglas de direccionamiento rotas)\nen lugar de entrar en una serie de soft lock-ups o\nalg\u00fan otro comportamiento problem\u00e1tico.\n\nSimilar a las reglas simples, la l\u00f3gica de rehash de reglas complejas\nsufre de los mismos problemas.
