[PATCH nf-next 0/3] netfilter: reduce hook array sizes to what is needed

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

 



This series further reduces size of the hook arrays by only resevering space
for the hooks that are implemented/supported (e.g., arp only supports 3 different
hook points as it lacks PRE/POST_ROUTING).

Furthermore, add #ifdef guard to not declare arp/bridge/decnet hooks unless
they are needed.

At least Fedora has CONFIG_DECNET=n so this even reduces size for some
distro kernels.

I ran a few randconfig builds last night and it did not catch any
build errors.
