[Ebtables-devel] ebtables-2.0.8rc2 crash on x86_64

[Carl-Daniel H. <c-d...@gm...>]

Hi,

When I try to add or remove a rule with ebtables on x86_64, ebtables
segfaults in libebtc.c:1014. Example rule follows:
# ebtables -t nat -D foo -s 1:22:3:44:5:66 -j ipv4filter-blacklist
e->t == NULL, i == 0, j == 0 in libebtc.c:1022.

This did not happen with ebtables 2.0.6 on x86_64, but there the
kernel spat out the following message:
"kernel msg: ebtables bug: please report to author: entries_size too small"
This happened only when I tried to add rules to from two chains
early in the ruleset to chains a bit later in the ruleset.
However, the destination rules/chains were created much later.
Ebtables gave this error message:
"The kernel doesn't support a certain ebtables extension, consider
recompiling your kernel or insmod the extension."

The identical configuration does not have any problems on i386.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
