I have made good progress on the instance that I got shared. I have a fix for the busy loop, but while that will be helpful it isn't avoiding the root-cause and the system will be broken in regard to iptables.
I have submitted an RFC with a long cover letter explaining the situation to upstream => https://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=156637728424204&w=2 But I'd not upload an experimental fix that only makes the symptom less fatal. We have to wait for the upstream discussion and hopefully get things fixed before Eoan is released. But for the UFW tests I currently see only the solution of disabling this particular test. As I said before force-badtest would be too blunt and kill all tests - after all it did its job perfectly and identified an issue. The big alternative would be to drop iptables 1.8.3 from Eoan - but I haven't thought about that too much. I'll try to prepare an UFW upload and test it before proposing it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840633 Title: autopkgtests get stuck in Eoan with iptables 1.8.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iptables/+bug/1840633/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
