[PATCH nft,v2] cache: do not populate the cache in case of flush ruleset command

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

 



__CMD_FLUSH_RULESET is a dummy definition that used to skip the netlink
dump to populate the cache. This patch is a workaround until we have a
better infrastructure to track the state of the cache objects.
