Patch didn't fix any issue, just improve parse flow and align ipv4 parse flow with ipv6 parse flow. Currently ipv4 kenguru parser first check IP protocol(TCP/UDP) and then destination IP address. Patch introduce reverse ipv4 parse, first destination IP address parsed and only then IP protocol. This would allow extend capability for packet L4 parsing and align ipv4 parsing flow with ipv6.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
