Rule Handle not updated after InsertRule even using Flush. about nftables HOT 4 CLOSED

Oh, now I see what you mean.

InsertRule serializes the provided rule into a buffer and Flush sends that buffer to nftables. The provided rule is neither retained nor updated. I don’t know off the top of my head if the nftables acknowledgement contains enough data to fill in ids at all, but it’s at least not currently implemented.

So, yes, you’ll need to do a GetRule to obtain a handle you can use for deletion.

I am using nftables.go v1.0.0

That tag does not exist. You mean v0.1.0, I assume.

Can you try if upgrading to main helps?

Yes my bad I meant v0.1.0 and No upgrading to main does not help.

Also what I think is also a real problem.. is that when Flush a rule, the handler of the rule stays 0 and never gets the real handle of the rule
