Subject: rconn: Discard messages received on monitor connections.
X-Git-Tag: sliver-openvswitch-1.10.90-3~16^2~38
X-Git-Url: http://git.onelab.eu/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f44c514621324d81929f7b0c8e2575c2b1d442d1;p=sliver-openvswitch.git

rconn: Discard messages received on monitor connections.

Otherwise, if a monitor connection happens to be talking to a (misguided?)
peer that sends it messages, such as replies to what the peer perceives as
echo requests meant for it, then the peer will eventually hang trying to
send data because the monitor connection never sinks it.
