Series applied, thanks Phil. One comment though regarding manpage: + The <literal>add</literal> and <literal>insert</literal> commands support an optional + location specifier, which is either a <replaceable>handle</replaceable> of an existing + rule or an absolute <replaceable>index</replaceable> (starting at zero) I think this new index is _relative_, since the counting depends on the ruleset, while the handle is an _absolute_ way to refer to rules. As you describe, index can be misleading since it depends on having no interferences with the ongoing ruleset update. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
