I have a new test pkg: This pkg keeps the same behavior for 'iptables'
# Hold the lock: flock /run/xtables.lock sleep 36000 # It holds and wait until flock() finishes or get killed, and then get executed. iptables -L # With 'wait' option, it waits until the wait time is ended: time iptables -L -w 3 Another app is currently holding the xtables lock. Stopped waiting after 3s. real 0m3.006s user 0m0.002s sys 0m0.001s --------------- # Hold the lock: flock /run/xtables.lock sleep 36000 # cat /etc/rules.v4 | iptables-restore -c -w 5 Another app is currently holding the xtables lock. Perhaps you want to use the -w option? real 0m5.009s user 0m0.006s sys 0m0.001s The 'wait' option instruction is respected. The message may be confusing as it is suggesting to use '-w' even if it was used. This is the progress I have made so far. - Eric -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791958 Title: iptables-restore is missing -w option To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iptables/+bug/1791958/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
