Sorry I miss something. nf_ct_l4proto_unregister_sysctl also uses .compat to identify if we can unregister the compat sysctl. if we register l4proto_tcp and l4proto_tcp6 both. without .compat, when unregister l4proto_tcp6, the compat sysctl will be unregister too. So maybe we have to use .compat. -- 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
