[PATCH nft] cmd: provide better hint if chain is already declared with different type/hook/priority

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

 



Display the following error in such case:

  ruleset.nft:7:9-52: Error: Chain "input" already exists in table ip 'filter' with different declaration
          type filter hook postrouting priority filter;
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

instead of reporting a misleading unsupported chain type.

Fixes: 573788e05363 ("src: improve error reporting for unsupported chain type")
