Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: hrtimer: prevent migration for raising softirq
Problem Details: Due to a possible deadlock, the waking of the softirq was pushed outside of the hrtimer base locks. See commit 0c96c5979a522c3323c30a078a70120e29b5bdbc Unfortunately this allows the task to migrate after setting up the softirq and raising it. Since softirqs run a queue that is per-cpu we may raise the...

Problem Details: Lost connections was reported by Thomas Bätzler (running 2.6.25 kernel) on the netfilter mailing list (see the thread "Weird nat/conntrack Problem with PASV FTP upload"). He provided tcpdump recordings which helped to find a long lingering bug in conntrack. In TCP connection tracking, checking the low...
