5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Pablo Neira Ayuso pablo@netfilter.org
commit c9bd26513b3a11b3adb3c2ed8a31a01a87173ff1 upstream.
nft -f -<<EOF add table ip t add table ip t { flags dormant; } add chain ip t c { type filter hook input priority 0; } add table ip t EOF
Triggers a splat from nf core on next table delete because we lose track of right hook register state:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1597 at net/netfilter/core.c:501 __nf_unregister_net_hook RIP: 0010:__nf_unregister_net_hook+0x41b/0x570 nf_unregister_net_hook+0xb4/0xf0 __nf_tables_unregister_hook+0x160/0x1d0 [..]
The above should have table in *active* state, but in fact no hooks were registered.
Reject on/off/on games rather than attempting to fix this.
