Subject: [iptables PATCH v2 1/2] nfnl_osf: Fix broken conversion to nfnl_query()
Date: Fri, 15 May 2020 16:03:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200515140330.13669-2-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200515140330.13669-1-phil@nwl.cc>
Due to missing NLM_F_ACK flag in request, nfnetlink code in kernel
didn't create an own ACK message but left it upon subsystem to ACK or
not. Since nfnetlink_osf doesn't ACK by itself, nfnl_query() got stuck
waiting for a reply.
Whoever did the conversion from deprecated nfnl_talk() obviously didn't
even test basic functionality of the tool.
Fixes: 52aa15098ebd6 ("nfnl_osf: Replace deprecated nfnl_talk() by nfnl_query()")
