Compiling errors happen when CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_HOOK = y
while CONFIG_NF_TABLES is not set:
net/netfilter/nfnetlink_hook.c: In function ‘nfnl_hook_put_nft_chain_info’:
net/netfilter/nfnetlink_hook.c:76:7: error: implicit declaration of function
‘nft_is_active’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
76 | if (!nft_is_active(net, chain))
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
Notice that nft_is_active macro is only defined when CONFIG_NF_TABLES
is enabled, so add dependency on NF_TABLES in NETFILTER_NETLINK_HOOK
configurations.
