Sorry, I think it was my addition that broke things. The condition for checking whether an entry is inserted is incorrect, thus resulting in an underflow of the number of entries after entry removal. Please test this patch: ---8<--- The function rhashtable_insert_one only returns NULL iff the insertion was successful, so that alone should be tested before increment nelems. Testing the variable data is redundant, and buggy because we will have overwritten the original value of data by this point.
