From 5e94846686d027a4c8ecc5d9d52b18036d3e8f7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Leblond Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2013 13:41:44 +0200 Subject: netfilter: nf_tables: add insert operation This patch adds a new rule attribute NFTA_RULE_POSITION which is used to store the position of a rule relatively to the others. By providing the create command and specifying the position, the rule is inserted after the rule with the handle equal to the provided position. Regarding notification, the position attribute specifies the handle of the previous rule to make sure we don't point to any stale rule in notifications coming from the commit path. This patch includes the following fix from Pablo: * nf_tables: fix rule deletion event reporting Signed-off-by: Eric Leblond Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso --- include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'include') diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h b/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h index 7d4a1992f89c..fbfd229a8e99 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h @@ -153,6 +153,7 @@ enum nft_chain_attributes { * @NFTA_RULE_HANDLE: numeric handle of the rule (NLA_U64) * @NFTA_RULE_EXPRESSIONS: list of expressions (NLA_NESTED: nft_expr_attributes) * @NFTA_RULE_COMPAT: compatibility specifications of the rule (NLA_NESTED: nft_rule_compat_attributes) + * @NFTA_RULE_POSITION: numeric handle of the previous rule (NLA_U64) */ enum nft_rule_attributes { NFTA_RULE_UNSPEC, @@ -161,6 +162,7 @@ enum nft_rule_attributes { NFTA_RULE_HANDLE, NFTA_RULE_EXPRESSIONS, NFTA_RULE_COMPAT, + NFTA_RULE_POSITION, __NFTA_RULE_MAX }; #define NFTA_RULE_MAX (__NFTA_RULE_MAX - 1) -- cgit v1.2.3
