In the preceding week (7d), I have worked off the git stash and reintegrated loose code snippets from 2011. I would like to elicit comments on the selected subset of 11 commits. These in themselves only build the basic table, but do so with the things (like netns, RCU) in mind that I would do from the start. Recognizing that readers want small chunks, I picked only these 11 commits to show. Therefore, rule entry logic will not be found in tonight's mail thread. The following changes since commit 198c5e907589835d9c9ad8c8fde661ad4d1796ee: netfilter: make nf_hook_ops.priv available to hooks (2012-11-01 15:34:03 +0100) are available in the git repository at: git://git.inai.de/linux xt2-20121102-0400 to be looked at up to 3581c20: netfilter: xtables2: table dump support ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jan Engelhardt (11): netfilter: xtables2: initial table skeletal functions netfilter: xtables2: initial Netlink interface netfilter: xtables2: chain creation and deletion netfilter: xtables2: chain renaming support netfilter: xtables2: transaction commit operation netfilter: xtables2: (atomic) table replace support netfilter: xtables2: transaction abort support netfilter: xtables2: redirect writes into transaction buffer netfilter: xtables2: supply a revision number netfilter: xtables2: chain dump support netfilter: xtables2: table dump support include/net/netfilter/xt_core.h | 53 ++ include/uapi/linux/netfilter/Kbuild | 1 + include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nfnetlink.h | 3 +- include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nfnetlink_xtables.h | 72 +++ net/netfilter/Kconfig | 8 +- net/netfilter/Makefile | 2 + net/netfilter/xt_core.c | 233 ++++++++ net/netfilter/xt_nfnetlink.c | 921 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ net/netfilter/xt_nfnetlink.h | 7 + 9 files changed, 1298 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) The userspace utility "xtnl-test" is, like before, available from git://git.inai.de/libnetfilter_xtables master [ID 349243e] Hint: Use `export LIBNFXT_DEBUG=1` to enable hexdumps of all message exchanges made by xtnl-test. -- 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
