In that case this fix is not in -stable yet. http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2009/4/8/5440564 > 64811 3.7735 ipt_MASQUERADE ipt_MASQUERADE device_cmp device_cmp() by nf_ct_iterate_cleanup() when NETDEV_DOWN event is received. Weird, is your device going down quite often? Another possibility is that there's some entry stuck in the conntrack table that we cannot delete, perhaps we're leaking refcounts somewhere. -- "Los honestos son inadaptados sociales" -- Les Luthiers -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
