So this little comment looks a bit redundant. Or it seems that academia can't come up with enough new protocols in time that we have to resort to do -m coffeemaker :) >@@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ >+#ifndef _XT_CPU_H >+#define _XT_CPU_H >+ >+struct xt_cpu_info { >+ unsigned int cpu; >+ int invert; >+}; >+#endif /*_XT_MAC_H*/ Please take a read in "Writing Netfilter Modules" e-book :-) It will tell you that types other than fixed ones are a no-no. >diff --git a/net/netfilter/Makefile b/net/netfilter/Makefile >index e28420a..0fe7efd 100644 >--- a/net/netfilter/Makefile >+++ b/net/netfilter/Makefile >@@ -79,6 +79,7 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_IPRANGE) += xt_iprange.o > obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LENGTH) += xt_length.o > obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LIMIT) += xt_limit.o > obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MAC) += xt_mac.o >+obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_CPU) += xt_cpu.o > obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MULTIPORT) += xt_multiport.o > obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_OSF) += xt_osf.o > obj-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_OWNER) += xt_owner.o Try to keep it alphabetic (KConfig too). >+ * >+ * iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 0 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080 >+ * iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 1 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8081 >+ * iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 2 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8082 >+ * iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 3 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8083 >+ * >+ */ Well the commands you already have presented in the commit log, and the most efficient place for these is actually the manpage. >+static bool cpu_mt(const struct sk_buff *skb, struct xt_action_param *par) >+{ >+ const struct xt_cpu_info *info = par->matchinfo; >+ bool ret; >+ >+ ret = info->cpu == smp_processor_id(); >+ ret ^= info->invert; >+ return ret; >+} Looks simple enough that it could do it in a single line, return (info->cpu == smp_processor_id()) ^ !!info->invert; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
