[Bug 1579385] [NEW] Kernel 4.4.0-22 OOPSes when using xt_CHAOS from xtables-addons

 

Public bug reported:

After upgrading from Wily to Xenial, my server started being frequently
rebooted by an HP iLO watchdog. I turned it off, and installed kdump
tools, and managed to capture a kernel crashdump. Turned out to be a
network-related OOPS, looks like a bug with xtables modules and kernel
4.4.0 (the issue doesn't seem to occur with 4.2.0).

crash tool outputs for two crashes (occured in series with 5-minute pause for server coldboot):

corresponding kernel backtraces:

The offending iptables rule, now removed:

iptables -A INPUT -j CHAOS --tarpit

xtables-addons-dkms and xtables-addons-common version:

 Installed: 2.10-1build1
  Candidate: 2.10-1build1
  Version table:
 *** 2.10-1build1 500
        500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages

Kernel version 4.4.0-22-generic #39-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 5 16:53:32 UTC
2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I still have the dumps and can provide any additional information
necessary. Also please  let me know if this is a wrong place to report
this problem.
