[PATCH 0/4] netfilter: nf_tables: dynamic set updates

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

 



The following patches contain a small bug fix for set selection with
timeouts, as well as support for dynamic set updates.

A new "dynset" expression type is added to dynamically add or update
set elements. The name is not my first choice, however due to clashes
with the regular set attributes simply "set" wasn't possible.
Userspace exposes this in a nicer fashion.

As preparation, set size accounting is changed to use an atomic_t
for the number of elements to avoid races, additionally set bindings
are changed to not assume every binding is related to a lookup or map
operation.

Please apply, thanks!
