Deletion of the last rule referencing a given idletimer may happen at
the same time as a read of its file in sysfs:
| ======================================================
| WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
| 6.12.0-rc7-01692-g5e9a28f41134-dirty #594 Not tainted
| ------------------------------------------------------
| iptables/3303 is trying to acquire lock:
| ffff8881057e04b8 (kn->active#48){++++}-{0:0}, at: __kernfs_remove+0x20
|
| but task is already holding lock:
| ffffffffa0249068 (list_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: idletimer_tg_destroy_v]
|
| which lock already depends on the new lock.
A simple reproducer is:
| #!/bin/bash
|
| while true; do
| iptables -A INPUT -i foo -j IDLETIMER --timeout 10 --label "testme"
| iptables -D INPUT -i foo -j IDLETIMER --timeout 10 --label "testme"
| done &
| while true; do
| cat /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/testme >/dev/null
| done
Avoid this by freeing list_mutex right after deleting the element from
the list, then continuing with the teardown.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
