Hi,
I have last week discussed breakage in nwfilter usage on IRC

With debug in the logs enabled I got confirmation by Daniel (thanks!)
that the command sequence libvirt issued looked kind of "normal".
Hereby I wanted to let you know that some further debugging identified
a part of the sequence that libvirt issues as being broken in recent
ebtables versions.
# ebtables --concurrent -t nat -N testrule3
# ebtables --concurrent -t nat -E testrule3 testrule3-renamed
ebtables v1.8.6 (nf_tables): Chain 'testrule3' doesn't exists
So you're saying you can just run those two commands together and always get
the error? (assuming that "testrule3 and testrule3-renamed don't exist
beforehand)
From your description it sounds like maybe the error doesn't occur when
there is a pause between the two commands - is that right, or am I assuming
too much?
I tried the above commands (well, I put the two commands together on a
single line separated by ";") on a Fedora 33 system and a RHEL 8.3.0 system,
and both of them completed successfully.
I tried it on Fedora 33 and it failed :-)
Strange. Both of my Fedora 33 systems are using iptables-1.8.5 and
ebtables-legacy-2.0.11. Is this because they were upgraded rather than
fresh installs? That seems kind of... bad. :-/ Whatever the case, I
should really remedy that.
It looks like the issue is with iptables-nft impl
This is the fedora ebtables -V: ebtables v2.0.11 (legacy) (December 2011)
And this is the ebtables -V on RHEL 8.3.0: ebtables 1.8.4 (nf_tables)
I guess it means 1.8.5 iptables-nft is broken. I filed a Fedora Bug
too which should get more direct attention of the person who's likely
to fix this.
