From e9be8ff2dc372797024d2ddf92c7218d75fe2f82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pablo Neira Ayuso Date: Mon, 24 Dec 2012 13:09:25 +0100 Subject: netfilter: xt_hashlimit: fix race that results in duplicated entries commit 09181842b000344b1205801df3aa5b726c03cc62 upstream. Two packets may race to create the same entry in the hashtable, double check if this packet lost race. This double checking only happens in the path of the packet that creates the hashtable for first time. Note that, with this patch, no packet drops occur if the race happens.
