commit569ccae68bupstream. rules in nftables a free'd using kfree, but protected by rcu, i.e. we must wait for a grace period to elapse. Normal removal patch does this, but nf_tables_newrule() doesn't obey this rule during error handling. It calls nft_trans_rule_add() *after* linking rule, and, if that fails to allocate memory, it unlinks the rule and then kfree() it -- this is unsafe. Switch order -- first add rule to transaction list, THEN link it to public list. Note: nft_trans_rule_add() uses GFP_KERNEL; it will not fail so this is not a problem in practice (spotted only during code review).

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.
