Hi ,
I am trying to add CONNMARK support to my kernel , and after
compilation , the CONNMARK.o module is not made.
This is what I done on my RedHat 9 system:
- Get kernel sources : linux-2.4.26.tar.gz
- Get: patch-o-matic-ng-20040302.tar.bz2
- Apply patch only for CONNMARK ( using ./runme extra , and test
it with ./runme --test CONNMARK)
- Already applied:
Testing CONNMARK... applied
Excellent! Source trees are ready for compilation.
- make menuconfig ,and using the old config ( importing RedHat
Athlon config)
- Selecting (like modules) :
- <M> Connection state match support
<M> Connection mark match support (NEW)
<M> Connection tracking match support
- finish to compile without any errors , but the CONNMARK.o module
was not build
- Trying to figure what went wrong , I saw that in .config there
is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_CONNMARK , which is required by Makefile
to build the object : obj-$(CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_CONNMARK) +=
ipt_CONNMARK.o
- More, I checked Config.in file (from netfilter folder) and :
- if [ "$CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK" != "n" ]; then
dep_tristate ' Connection mark match support'
CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_CONNMARK $CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES
fi
- As you see , it is testing if $CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK (
which is not set by anybody , and get true cause is not "n" ) and is
setting: CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_CONNMARK as a module in ".config" file .
- Conclusion the only line in ".config" file regarding CONNTRACK
is : CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_CONNMARK=m , so normaly that make is not
building CONNMARK.o
- I try to set manually in ".config" those variables, but is not
working , I get some errors cause CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK is tested
in ip_conntrack.h, and if it is set manually is not exported ...duno
why.<><><>
<><>Any help will be appreciated .
Thank you ,
Iulian
