[Bug 758] New: Retry iptables command on transient failure
...uldn't iptables itself try a number of times and only exit if the
condition persists instead of giving up immediately?
The message when that happens suggests that it comes from the
following fragment in iptables-standalone.c:
if (errno == EAGAIN) {
exit(RESOURCE_PROBLEM);
}
so I assume, that some system call returned EAGAIN. This may indicate a
real error condition (deadlock situation), which is why I wouldn't
retry indefinitely, but failing on a single try appears to be a
common case.
