It seems to me it is an architecture-specific alignment issue. I don't have a Cortex-A7 ARM hardware and qemu doesn't seem to support it either, so I'm unable to reproduce it (ipset passes all my tests on my hardware, including more complex ones than what breaks here). My first wild guess is that the dynamic array of the element structure is not aligned properly. Could you give a try to the next patch? diff --git a/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_hash_gen.h b/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_hash_gen.h index afe905c..1cf357d 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_hash_gen.h +++ b/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_hash_gen.h @@ -1211,6 +1211,9 @@ static const struct ip_set_type_variant mtype_variant = { .same_set = mtype_same_set, }; +#define IP_SET_BASE_ALIGN(dtype) \ + ALIGN(sizeof(struct dtype), __alignof__(struct dtype)) + #ifdef IP_SET_EMIT_CREATE static int IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, _create)(struct net *net, struct ip_set *set, @@ -1319,12 +1322,12 @@ IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, _create)(struct net *net, struct ip_set *set, #endif set->variant = &IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, 4_variant); set->dsize = ip_set_elem_len(set, tb, - sizeof(struct IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, 4_elem))); + IP_SET_BASE_ALIGN(IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, 4_elem))); #ifndef IP_SET_PROTO_UNDEF } else { set->variant = &IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, 6_variant); set->dsize = ip_set_elem_len(set, tb, - sizeof(struct IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, 6_elem))); + IP_SET_BASE_ALIGN(IPSET_TOKEN(HTYPE, 6_elem))); } #endif if (tb[IPSET_ATTR_TIMEOUT]) { If that does not solve it, then could you help to narrow down the issue?
