Description Matthew Ife 2014-01-23 21:12:33 UTC
Creating a rule that jumps to a chain which you subsequently delete will
result in the kernel throwing a BUG message with the following:

kernel BUG at net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:1014!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
Modules linked in: nft_meta nft_reject_ipv4 nft_hash nft_rbtree nf_tables_ipv4_

The host displays no more console output suggesting a panic however the console is no longer responsive and does not respond to ping.

Here is the interactive session I used.

# nft -i
nft> add table filter
nft> add chain filter input { type filter hook input priority 0; }
nft> add chain filter test 
nft> add rule filter input jump test
nft> delete chain filter test

Here we go. Please test whether this fixes the problem. Thanks.

Looks good. The two mechs that I was able to cause this problem have gone away. Provided the new transcript in case it is reporting anything you dont expect.

nft> add table filter
nft> add chain ip filter input { type filter hook input priority 0; }
nft> add chain ip filter test
nft> add rule ip filter input jump test
nft> delete chain ip filter test
<cli>:1:1-27: Error: Could not delete chain: Device or resource busy
delete chain ip filter test
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


nft> add map filter mymap { type ifindex : verdict ; }
nft> add element filter mymap { lo : jump test }
nft> add element filter mymap { eth0 : jump test }
nft> list table filter
table ip filter {
	map mymap {
		type ifindex : verdict
		elements = { eth0 : jump test, lo : jump test}
	}

	chain input {
		 type filter hook input priority 0;
		 jump test # handle 3
	}

	chain test {
	}
}
nft> delete rule filter input handle 3
nft> delete chain ip filter test
<cli>:1:1-27: Error: Could not delete chain: Device or resource busy
delete chain ip filter test
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
