problems with iproute2 m_xt again...

[Andreas Henriksson <andreas@fatal.se>]

Hello!

Mailing you in hope that you could help out with the xt module of iproute2 tc
once more, as you've done in the past.... It seems to be broken again. sigh.

amd64:~# iptables -nL | grep test
Chain test (0 references)
amd64:~# tc filter add dev fon parent ffff: protocol ip prio 10 u32 action xt -j test
 failed to find target test

bad action parsing
parse_action: bad value (3:xt)!
Illegal "action"
amd64:~#


And maybe even more interesting is when I try to use a built-in chain like DROP:

amd64:~# tc filter add dev fon parent ffff: protocol ip prio 10 u32 action xt -j DROP
tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING
Segmentation fault
amd64:~# 




(gdb) set args filter add dev fon parent ffff: protocol ip prio 10 u32 action xt -j DROP
(gdb) run

This is with the iproute package version 20120521-3 on Debian unstable.
Did I screw anything up? Did I use the wrong commands? Or are things just
broken again?

Btw. I have iptables package version 1.4.14-2
