RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Phil Sutter 2019-01-15 19:56:32 UTC 
This new API had a few problems fixed upstream by following commits:

commit de5a23d26828a1e1f2d3351b0414925857546496
Author: Phil Sutter <phil>
Date:   Sun Dec 30 17:02:13 2018 +0100

    src: chain: Add missing nftnl_chain_rule_del()
    
    Although identical to nftnl_rule_list_del(), this function adheres to
    the common naming style of per chain rule list routines introduced
    earlier, therefore helps with deprecating the global rule list API at a
    later point.

commit 278a3b779a731b3565595259b07b9065f6a6f425
Author: Phil Sutter <phil>

    src: chain: Fix nftnl_chain_rule_insert_at()
    
    Extrapolating from iptables nomenclature, one would expect that "insert"
    means to prepend the new item to the referenced one, not append. Change
    nftnl_chain_rule_insert_at() to do just that and introduce
    nftnl_chain_rule_append_at() to insert a rule after the referenced one.

The latter is required to fix rule ordering issue in iptables-nft-restore as reported in bug 1647925.
