[PATCH] net: bpfilter: fallback to netfilter if failed to load bpfilter kernel module

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If bpfilter is not available return ENOPROTOOPT to fallback to netfilter.

Function request_module() returns both errors and userspace exit codes.
Just ignore them. Rechecking bpfilter_ops is enough.
