Xtables2 status for Dec 04

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



(Previous sets: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netfilter-devel/msg24117.html
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netfilter-devel/msg23925.html , which have
been amended lightly to address bugs and cosmetics.)

This is the third set of patches in Xtables2, in particular,
extension load/unload and execution logic for matches, targets
and verdicts. So, a "yay" is in order.

	Mandatory URLs.
	kernel part: git://git.inai.de/linux xt2-20121204-0135
	user part:   git://git.inai.de/libnetfilter_xtables master

Some xt extensions are directly usable. The table-replace test program
will use xt_MARK and xt_comment:

	cd libnetfilter_xtables/src/
	# this adds some rules with (m)atches, (t)argets, (v)erdicts
	# all with a he(x)dump
	./xtnl-test table-replace -Pmtvx
	ip6tables -A INPUT -m mark --mark 0x66666666
	iptables  -A INPUT -m mark --mark 0x44444444

Watch counters with `ip6tables -nvL` (or ipv4). As you will notice,
xt1 can run as a sibling to xt2.

The Xtables2 high-level documentation that currently contains the
section Architectural Differences, was updated:
