Hi Paolo, I updated the patch with nf_reset_ct change (nf_reset() replaced with nf_reset_ct) to align with the latest kernel code. Hi All, I also want to push this change (with nf_reset) in 4.19 LTS kernel, please can you tell me how can I push to that version? Thanks in advance. Hi Florian, In patchv3 updated the subject line as you suggested.
