Dead loop on Virtual device BR0

[Andrew Hall]

Hi,

Not sure if this is a possible bug, but we are seeing the message "Dead loop on Virtual device BR0" a lot.

We are using 2.6.10 and have now tried 2.6.11.5 with native ipsec, brouting, netfilter and HTB queuing enabled. If I shut down the ipsec tunnel, this message goes away.

Can someone please explain what it means and whether it's a bug?

Please let me know if there is any more information you need.

thanks,

Andrew.
