[ Upstream commitb91d903688] There is no code that decreases the reference count of stateful objects in error path of the nft_add_set_elem(). this causes a leak of reference count of stateful objects. Test commands: $nft add table ip filter $nft add counter ip filter c1 $nft add map ip filter m1 { type ipv4_addr : counter \;} $nft add element ip filter m1 { 1 : c1 } $nft add element ip filter m1 { 1 : c1 } $nft delete element ip filter m1 { 1 } $nft delete counter ip filter c1 Result: Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy delete counter ip filter c1 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ At the second 'nft add element ip filter m1 { 1 : c1 }', the reference count of the 'c1' is increased then it tries to insert into the 'm1'. but the 'm1' already has same element so it returns -EEXIST. But it doesn't decrease the reference count of the 'c1' in the error path. Due to a leak of the reference count of the 'c1', the 'c1' can't be removed by 'nft delete counter ip filter c1'.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
