RHBA-2015:1353 - ipset bug fix update

Synopsis

ipset bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated ipset packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The ipset packages provide IP sets, a framework inside the Linux 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernel, which can be administered by the ipset utility. Depending on the type, an IP set can currently store IP addresses, TCP/UDP port numbers or IP addresses with MAC addresses in a way that ensures high speed when matching an entry against a set.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • When the user was trying to create a program using the ipset library, linking failed with an undefined reference to the ipset_port_usage() function. With this update, ipset_port_usage() is now provided by the library and a program using the ipset library is now compiled successfully. (BZ#1121665)

Users of ipset are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
