When application fails to pass flags in netlink TLV when replacing existing skbmod action, the kernel will leak refcnt: $ tc actions get action skbmod index 1 total acts 0 action order 0: skbmod pipe set smac 00:11:22:33:44:55 index 1 ref 1 bind 0 For example, at this point a buggy application replaces the action with index 1 with new smac 00:aa:22:33:44:55, it fails because of zero flags, however refcnt gets bumped: $ tc actions get actions skbmod index 1 total acts 0 action order 0: skbmod pipe set smac 00:11:22:33:44:55 index 1 ref 2 bind 0 $ Tha patch fixes this by calling tcf_idr_release() on existing actions.
