Look like a potential patchset to backport without having to bump version in stable release:
I'll test it, and then will alk w/ the SRU verification team to see if eligible for SRU. commit 6e2e169eb66b63d2991e1c7ada931e3cdb0ced32 Author: Lorenzo Colitti <lore...@google.com> Date: Thu Mar 16 16:55:01 2017 +0900 iptables: remove duplicated argument parsing code 1. Factor out repeated code to a new xs_has_arg function. 2. Add a new parse_wait_time option to parse the value of -w. 3. Make parse_wait_interval take argc and argv so its callers can be simpler. + 21ba5b38 ip{,6}tables-restore: Don't accept wait-interval without wait d89dc47a iptables-restore/save: exit when given an unknown option 65801d02 iptables-restore.8: document -w/-W options 999eaa24 iptables-restore: support acquiring the lock. ** Tags added: seg sts -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to iptables in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791958 Title: iptables-restore is missing -w option Status in iptables package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: For CRIU we need to have iptables version 1.6.2 which includes the '-w' option in iptables-restore. This is a request to update iptables to 1.6.2 in 18.10 and if possible backport the necessary changes to 18.04. The CRIU project gets right now many bug reports (mostly in the combination LXD + CRIU) due to the missing '-w' option in iptables- restore. Especially as 18.04 will be around for some time it would be good to have iptables-restore available with '-w'. This is one example bug report: https://github.com/checkpoint- restore/criu/issues/551 But not only CRIU would benefit from this change. It seems also problematic with Kubernetes: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60978 So if possible, please update iptables to 1.6.2 (or backport changes) to support -w in iptables-restore.
