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
Bzzz, sorry. Just noticed that you had asked about 1.4.0->1.4.1, not
1.3->1.4.
Best regards,
Krzysztof Olędzki
