commit 8e24edddad152b998b37a7f583175137ed2e04a5 upstream. nested target/match_revfn() calls work with xt[NFPROTO_UNSPEC] lists without taking xt[NFPROTO_UNSPEC].mutex. This can race with module unload and cause host to crash: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] Modules linked in: ...

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
