Memory leak problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I've got a problem of memory leak with iptables. I'm using iptables
1.2.7a. I've linked libiptc.a and iptables.o with my application.

I'm setting up some NAT rules by using do_command and iptc_commit
functions.

I've seen a mail on netfilter-devel list (dated of 2 september) dealing
with this problems. Here is this mail :

>You expect the iptables source components to be more than a short->running 
>one-shot application; you expect them to be usable in a library in a 
>longer-running process. That expectation is wrong, the current userlevel 
>iptables source was not designed with that goal in mind.

>This is currently tackled by some developers (not me), who are working
>on an all-new userlevel and user/kernel interface that _is_ designed
>to support efficient use from many different userlevel applications.

>However, as far as I know, this reimplementation is currently not
>in a form that you may use.

>best regards

First of all, I would want to know if the developers team in charge of
the developement of the new userlevel interface is on this list?

Secondly, are there news about this subject ? If developement's
resources are needed, perhaps I can help !

Best regards,
   Mickael
