Hi.
The NF_CONTINUE verdict that Darryl Miles brings up in his 11/4 post is very interesting.
NF_CONTINUE would provide the NFQUEUE target the added flexibility of, say, partial handling in userspace. A queue-handler could have a set of criteria that, when satisfied, would result in an immediate drop or accept. One could then leave the rest of the packets to find their fate in the chains/rules left to traverse.
I would be interested in helping to add this verdict if someone will take the lead (assuming a patch hasn't already been written - has it?).
Your comments appreciated.
