conntrack expectation table problems

[Alex Masidlover <alex.masidlover@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 This morning we noticed a very strange problem on our Gentoo machine.

The kernel log was printing:

nf_conntrack:  Expectation Table Full.

However, on examining the table, it looked to be empty/corrupt:

bash# wc /proc/net/ip_conntrack_expect
0 0 0 /proc/net/ip_conntrack_expect

bash# conntrack -L expect
conntrack v0.9.14 (conntrack-tools): 0 expectations have been shown.

The only solution was a reboot.

System Info:

Operating System: Gentoo

Kernel:  2.6.27-openvz-kuindzhi.1-r1

net-libs/libnetfilter_conntrack
     Latest version available: 0.0.101
     Latest version installed: 0.0.101

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in Advance,

Alex Masidlover
