Description Dominique Martinet 2020-05-26 10:33:11 UTC
Description of problem:
mtr in tcp mode (--tcp --port x) sometimes fail to bind or connect with EADDRINUSE/EADDRNOTAVAIL errors. Since it always picks the same port numbers this make it very annoying, having to reboot to 'fix' the issue in case of bind or wait until the FIN-WAIT connections drop in case of accept.

mtr now retries with another port by default in v0.93, so this is no longer required.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.92

How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run e.g. `mtr --report --report-wide --tcp --port 80 -c 5 -n 1.1.1.1` multiple times, sometimes gets stuck

Actual results:
cannot get full traceroute because aborted early

Expected results:
get full traceroute.

Additional info:
I would be happy to submit a PR on pagure for the upgrade, but in the past I've had projects ignore PRs until I open a bz so starting with bz... Ideally new versions should go to rawhide only but since it fixes an actual bug it would be good to have in f32 at least?
If you want to just backport a patch the fix would probably be https://github.com/traviscross/mtr/commit/0934883fe1455e9e63ad978451bbeba3d37cf9b1 but that is more work... see https://github.com/traviscross/mtr/issues/304 for details.
