commit db25517a550926f609c63054b12ea9ad515e1a10 upstream.
If .next function does not change position index, following .show function will repeat output related to current position index.
Without the patch: # dd if=/proc/net/xt_recent/SSH # original file outpt src=127.0.0.4 ttl: 0 last_seen: 6275444819 oldest_pkt: 1 6275444819 src=127.0.0.2 ttl: 0 last_seen: 6275438906 oldest_pkt: 1 6275438906 src=127.0.0.3 ttl: 0 last_seen: 6275441953 oldest_pkt: 1 6275441953 0+1 records in 0+1 records out 204 bytes copied, 6.1332e-05 s, 3.3 MB/s
Read after lseek into middle of last line (offset 140 in example below) generates expected end of last line and then unexpected whole last line once again
