[PATCH RFC 1/2] netfilter: nf_tables: move set netlink messages into the batch

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

 



This patch reworks the nf_tables API so set updates are moved into
the same batch that contains rule updates. This speeds up rule-set
updates we skip a dialog of four messages between kernel and
user-space (two on each direction).

 1) create the set and send netlink message to the kernel
 2) process the response from the kernel that contains the allocated name.
 3) add the set elements and send netlink message to the kernel.
 4) process the response from the kernel (to check for errors).

To:

 1) add the set to the batch.
 2) add the set elements to the batch.
 3) add the rule that points to the set.
 4) send batch to the kernel.

The idea is to allocate an internal set ID to the batch that can be
used when adding set elements and rules that refer to the set in the
batch.

Backward compatibility has been only retained in userspace, this
means that new nft versions can talk to the kernel both in the new
and the old fashion.

I'm considering preparing a follow up patch to add tables and chains
to the big batch message as well.
