Subject: xt_recent broken in kernel 3.19.0
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2015 09:28:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150211092834.65f8ae80@bother.homenet> (raw)

With kernel 3.19.0, the following iptables rule, where SSH_TRIES is set
to 4:

  iptables -D SSH_CHAIN -m conntrack --ctstate NEW \
    -m recent --update --seconds $SSH_LOGIN_PERIOD --hitcount $SSH_TRIES -j DROP

generates this error message in syslog:

  kernel: xt_recent: hitcount (4) is larger than packets to be
  remembered (4) for table DEFAULT

and the rule fails to install in the table.  No error is generated with
kernel 3.18.6.

Chris
