You could build the experimental ipset "FOO" kernel module and build the shared-lib of "FOO" userspace tool module and plug into the system without recompile the ipset userspace tool at all. It's inspired by iptables (kernel/userspace module). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
