[PATCH net 5/7] netfilter: nf_tables: hide clash bit from userspace

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

 



From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

Its a kernel implementation detail, at least at this time:

We can later decide to revert this patch if there is a compelling
reason, but then we should also remove the ifdef that prevents exposure
of ip_conntrack_status enum IPS_NAT_CLASH value in the uapi header.

Clash entries are not included in dumps (true for both old /proc
and ctnetlink) either.  So for now exclude the clash bit when dumping.

Fixes: 7e5c6aa67e6f ("netfilter: nf_tables: add packets conntrack state to debug trace info")
