From: Phil Sutter <phil@xxxxxx> The value in idx and the number of rules handled in that particular __nf_tables_dump_rules() call is not identical. The former is a cursor to pick up from if multiple netlink messages are needed, so its value is ever increasing. Fixing this is not just a matter of subtracting s_idx from it, though: When resetting rules in multiple chains, __nf_tables_dump_rules() is called for each and cb->args[0] is not adjusted in between. Introduce a dedicated counter to record the number of rules reset in this call in a less confusing way. While being at it, prevent the direct return upon buffer exhaustion: Any rules previously dumped into that skb would evade audit logging otherwise.
