Yes. Vanilla 2.6.32. We saw the same issue on at least 2.6.30.1 (as far as I know).

iptables NETFLOW and ISG modules aren't in standard kernel (yet)

Agreed. But they are only iptables modules, not patches. How can they
be related to functionality of routing (especially routing rules) subsystem?

Thank you.

P.S.: By the way, we're not using rules at all on this router:

0:      from all lookup local
32766:  from all lookup main
32767:  from all lookup default

Got the same panic, at the same place (fib_rules_lookup+0xa2/0xd0). Looks like the problem with NULL dereference is somewhere in list_for_each_entry_rcu macro. But I don't understand how this can be.

Any thoughts? :(

Do you have any modify rules activity ?

I dont understand why we need synchronize_rcu() in fib_nl_delrule() but
this certainly not a bug.
