Description Douglas Kosovic 2018-03-31 13:29:39 UTC 
kernels 4.16 release candidates and 4.15 have broken xl2tpd with a ENODEV (No such device) error, see:
   https://github.com/xelerance/xl2tpd/issues/147

As mentioned in that github xl2tpd issue, I've submitted a pull request that fixes the bug. It is based on xl2tpd-1.3.8-saref.patch in Fedora's xl2tpd RPM spec file, except it doesn't attempt to obtain the ancillary IP_PKTINFO data, so does pretty much what xl2tpd running on non-linux operating systems do.

I've requested a new xl2tpd release which has the pull request, but don't know how long it will be for the new release.


It would be great if Fedora 26, 27 and EPEL7 xl2tpd packages are updated to the next new release or have a patch based on the pull request.
