We've experienced a recent kernel crash on a captive portal server running
debian/wheezy with a standard kernel 3.2.0-4. The crash seems to be related to
ipset that we're using to check bitmaps {ip,mac}. It has not been seen before
on this production server.

A cleanup part is missing for the bitmap:ip,mac type with timeout in the
3.2 kernel tree:

diff --git a/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_bitmap_ipmac.c b/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_bitmap_ipmac.c

  }

  static int

However, the missing part caused incomplete listing only. This case seems
to be different. So does the patch above help?

Best regards,

I'll make a try. I keep you in touch if the crash re-appears.

Thanks Jozsef,
