Subject: iputils-arping: -w (deadline) broken

Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2019 11:52:15 +0200

Package: iputils-arping
Version: 3:20190709-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

arping -w doesn't work anymore. Instead of exiting when the deadline is
reached, it just hangs.

# arping -w 2 -f -I eno1 172.17.49.5
ARPING 172.17.49.5 from 172.16.72.51 eno1
<hangs until ^C>
Sent 172 probes (172 broadcast(s))
Received 0 response(s)

It worked fine with 3:20180629-2:
# arping -w 2 -f -I eno1 172.17.49.5
ARPING 172.17.49.5 from 172.16.72.51 eno1
Sent 3 probes (3 broadcast(s))
Received 0 response(s)

Thanks

Lucas

Git bisect indicates that it was broken with upstream commit
67e070d08dcbec990e1178360f82b3e2ca4f6d5f

There's a followup commit to that,
84ca65ca980315c73f929fed8b6f16bbd698c3a0, which includes in its log "Oh
my, that is pretty much as wrong the code could have been." I suspect
that not all the issues have been sorted out there.
