Hi! I'm using ipset's hash:ip with timeout to ban bad behaving clients. When using very long timeout ( > 2147483 ) the ipset's timeout gets weird: -- TEST 1 ---------------- + uname -r 3.15.6 + ipset --version ipset v6.23, protocol version: 6 + ipset create test hash:ip timeout 1111111 + ipset add test 10.0.0.1 + ipset add test 10.0.0.2 timeout 2000000 + ipset add test 10.0.0.3 timeout 3000000 + ipset list test Name: test Type: hash:ip Revision: 3 Header: family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 65536 timeout 1111111 Size in memory: 16720 References: 0 Members: 10.0.0.1 timeout 1111111 10.0.0.2 timeout 2000000 10.0.0.3 timeout 4294967 + ipset destroy test -------------------------- The 10.0.0.3 gets 4294967 timeout although I wanted timeout 3000000. With hash:ip default timeout being >2147483 the test looks like this: -- TEST 2 ---------------- + ipset create test2 hash:ip timeout 3333333 + ipset add test2 10.0.0.1 + ipset add test2 10.0.0.2 timeout 2000000 + ipset add test2 10.0.0.3 timeout 3000000 + ipset list test2 Name: test2 Type: hash:ip Revision: 3 Header: family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 65536 timeout 3333333 Size in memory: 16720 References: 0 Members: 10.0.0.1 timeout 4294967 10.0.0.2 timeout 2000000 10.0.0.3 timeout 4294967 + ipset destroy test2 -------------------------- Now 10.0.0.1 gets wrong timeout and 10.0.0.3 also. The magic number 2147483 is (UINT_MAX/1000)/2 which makes me think this is some signed/unsigned int problem somewhere. The above tests were run on x86_64 machine; the same problem is on i686, but wrongly assigned timeout is 2147483 instead of 4294967. I also tried 3.16.2 kernel, but the bug is here too. Could you, please, have a look at this problem?
