[nft PATCH v2] echo: Fix for added delays in rule updates

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

 



The added cache update upon every command dealing with rules was a
bummer. Instead, perform the needed cache update only if echo option was
set.

Initially, I tried to perform the cache update from within
netlink_echo_callback(), but that turned into a mess since the shared
socket between cache_init() and mnl_batch_talk() would receive
unexpected new input. So instead update the cache from do_command_add(),
netlink_replace_rule_batch() and do_comand_insert() so it completes
before mnl_batch_talk() starts listening.

Changes since v1:
- Don't change function signatures: It is not really required and should
  be done in a dedicated patch instead.
- Use 'ret' as return code variable name.
