v5.0.1
We are happy to announce the first service release of BISDN Linux 5.0 (Ortolana).
BISDN Linux 5.0.1 focuses on stability and security. As part of it we updated the Linux kernel to 6.1.47.
On Edgecore AS4610 series, we fixed an issue where the I2C bus may lock up after a transmission time out. The bus will now successfully recover from this state.
We resolved an issue where a fast link up of ports on startup may get missed, and ports were stuck without carrier unless their link state got changed again. IP addresses assigned to the loopback interfaces via systemd-networkd are now scanned and applied correctly. We resolved multiple race conditions in VxLAN handling, greatly improving reliability of VxLAN tunnel establishment.
OF-DPA will no longer crash on startup if there are network interfaces present with 15 characters long names.
Finally we fixed a rare crash of baseboxd due to incorrect parsing of some netlink messages in libnl, and improved their handling in mstpd as well.
