Hello netfilter coreteam, I'm currently looking for a way to support ipt_ACCOUNT both for iptables 1.4.0 and iptables 1.4.1. Some function names changed (addr_to_dotted() -> ipaddr_to_numeric()) and it would be easy to #ifdef around them. The linux kernel provides multiple defines for its version number, while iptables only supports a char* version string. Would it make sense to add something like the kernel version defines so one could write code like this: #if IPTABLES_VERSION_CODE < IPTABLES_VERSION(1,4,1) abc #else xyz #endif
#ifdef _XTABLES_H init(struct xt_entry_target *t) #else init(struct ipt_entry_target *t, unsigned int *nfcache) #endif Best regards, Krzysztof Olędzki
