2013-03-16docs: update git mirror urlsDaniel Borkmann1-2/+2
Some of the official Git mirror URLs were deprecated, so update them. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-03-15docs: add initial workflow documentDaniel Borkmann1-0/+64
Trying to document the workflow that comes along with using this Git repository. Further ideas, additions to this document are welcome to create a unified frame for all maintainers, developers and (advanced) users. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>

We decided to get rid of the old Git history and start a new one for several reasons: *) Allow / enforce only high-quality commits (which was not the case for many commits in the history), have a policy that is more close to the one from the Linux kernel. With high quality commits, we mean code that is logically split into commits and commit messages that are signed-off and have a proper subject and message body. We do not allow automatic Github merges anymore, since they are total bullshit. However, we will either cherry-pick your patches or pull them manually. *) The old archive was about ~27MB for no particular good reason. This basically derived from the bad decision that also some PDF files where stored there. From this moment onwards, no binary objects are allowed to be stored in this repository anymore. The old archive is not wiped away from the Internet. You will still be able to find it, e.g. on git.cryptoism.org etc. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

temPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+6 This patch implements the check generation id as provided by nfnetlink. This allows us to reject ruleset updates against stale baseline, so userspace can retry update with a fresh ruleset cache. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> 2017-02-12netfilter: nfnetlink: allow to check for generation IDPablo Neira Ayuso1-4/+27 This patch allows userspace to specify the generation ID that has been used to build an incremental batch update. If userspace specifies the generation ID in the batch message as attribute, then nfnetlink compares it to the current generation ID so you make sure that you work against the right baseline. Otherwise, bail out with ERESTART so userspace knows that its changeset is stale and needs to respin. Userspace can do this transparently at the cost of taking slightly more time to refresh caches and rework the changeset. This check is optional, if there is no NFNL_BATCH_GENID attribute in the batch begin message, then no check is performed.

Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> 2017-02-12netfilter: nf_ct_expect: nf_ct_expect_insert() returns voidGao Feng1-5/+3 Because nf_ct_expect_insert() always succeeds now, its return value can be just void instead of int. And remove code that checks for its return value.

Four qdisc chose to call their own ops->destroy(), assuming their caller would not. This patch makes sure qdisc_create() calls ops->destroy() and fixes the four qdisc to avoid double free.
