Description Stefano Brivio 2018-03-17 01:52:20 UTC
We now have customer bugs requesting features that have been introduced upstream quite recently, and it would be impractical and risky to introduce them with the big gap we currently have in our codebase.

We had recent, critical bugs, that were fixed upstream, but we couldn't conveniently backport any patch, and we had to resort to RHEL-only patches. See e.g. bz1517397.

Furthermore, the userspace component is more recent than the kernel implementation, and supports set types that are not supported in kernel, causing obvious inconsistencies. Also the current upstream test suite is unusable with our current kernel implementation.

This poses a strong case for a rebase of the kernel component.

Comment 5 Bruno Meneguele 2018-05-29 10:06:21 UTC
Patch(es) committed on kernel repository and an interim kernel build is undergoing testing

Comment 6 Bruno Meneguele 2018-05-29 10:39:39 UTC
Patch(es) available on kernel-3.10.0-894.el7

Comment 9 yiche 2018-07-20 06:57:46 UTC
I have run upstream test: git clone git://git.netfilter.org/ipset on kernel-3.10.0-898.el7 and get result:
https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/recipes/5307771#task74304094
all items gone through


review result.log,there is only one item failed:
Failed test: ./check_klog.sh 10.255.255.64 udp 1025 netiface

that because when exec 
sendip -p ipv4 -id 10.255.255.254 -is 10.255.255.64 -p udp -ud 80 -us 1025 10.255.255.254

there is a few iptables rule remain:
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 29 packets, 3576 bytes)
pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         
    0     0 LOG        all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0            match-set test dst,dst LOG flags 0 level 4 prefix "in set netiface: "
    1    28 DROP       all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0      10.255.255.254 

That drop cause sendto() EPERM (Operation not permitted). sendip use RAW socket to generate IP payload.

I don't think it's a issue.

Comment 10 yiche 2018-07-20 07:17:03 UTC
I also cover these type: 
- hash:net,net
- hash:net,port,net
- hash:ip,mark
- hash:ip,mac
basic function works fine.
no issue found.

Comment 12 yiche 2018-08-02 02:12:11 UTC
There is a issue hash:mac can't be matched as a destination MAC address. 
Bug 1607252

Hi Yi Chen,

(In reply to yiche from comment #12)

Wouldn't it make sense to keep this as VERIFIED, though, and track the additional issue separately?

Comment 15 yiche 2018-08-03 01:01:06 UTC
Ok,We can track it separately.
