Hello again. Will anybody review this patch?
This is really critical issue, because it can lead to memory corruption and break any program using LPM.

CCing this to Bruce Richardson, because he is maintainer of LPM.

Igor Ryzhov

LPM table overflow may occur if table is full and added rule has the biggest depth that already have some rules.
