[Devel] [PATCH] iptables compat code error way & module refcounting fix

Dmitry Mishin dim at openvz.org

This patch fixes bug in iptables modules refcounting on compat error way.

As we are getting modules in check_compat_entry_size_and_hooks(), in case of
later error, we should put them all in translate_compat_table(), not  in the
compat_copy_entry_from_user() or compat_copy_match_from_user(), as it is now.
