These messages are still filling system message buffer. According
to
pfctl (8) there is nothing wrong with incrementing "XPass" counters
instead of the "Pass" counters. The message "pfr_update_stats:
assertion
failed" is printed for debugging purposes only. One could also
compare
the counters with the command "pfctl -sT -vv".
OpenBSD converted printf()'s to DPFDEBUG() macro in their sources
almost
8 years ago. Only this printf() in pf_table.c has been converted to
the
level of LOG_DEBUG [1].
Perhaps this line of code could be removed from FreeBSD PF sources?
The previous patch was hastily prepared. It should rather look like

but
I’m a bit worried that this demonstrates an actual problem.
It’s not at all clear to me what’s going on in this bit of the
code,
and the OpenBSD repo doesn’t have any information about it either.
This machine acts as a NAT/firewall gateway for about a hundred users.
A few hundred of PF rules + 20 tables are used. The error appeared
suddenly after upgrade from 8-STABLE to 10-STABLE 3 years ago. It
never
occurred when the firewall run PF on 8-STABLE. I don't remember
whether
firewall rules were changed at that time. If it is true then changes
concerned only the compatibility with the newer version of PF.
If it demonstrates an actual problem, then, please give me a clue how
to
debug it. On the other hand, ~6 years ago PF was significantly
reworked.
Is this piece of code still relevant there?
I honestly don’t know. I’d be good to actually investigate this
before simply removing the warning.
Unfortunately I just don’t have the time to dig into this right now.
The only thing I can suggest is to look at the code and work out where
the op_pass value comes from (and perhaps also what it’s used for. Why
is PRF_OP_XPASS better than !PFR_OP_PASS?
It’s still present (though perhaps not logged) in OpenBSD too.
