Subject: [RFC] Patches to allow updates of timeouts in expectations
Date: Wed, 2 May 2012 17:39:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1336005564-23171-1-git-send-email-kelvie@ieee.org> (raw)
Hello all,
These are a couple of patches that I will be using in order to solve a problem
I am having with (permanent) expectation timeouts not being able to be updated.
Initial testing tells me that these work; when I call NFCT_Q_CREATE_UPDATE with
an existing permanent expectation, it updates it correctly with the new timeout
value. I use nfexp_query directly (rather than through conntrack-tools).
Anyway, this is something that was useful to me, so I'm not sure if you guys
would like these patches upstream but also, am I doing this correctly
(especially with respect to locking), or is there any other thing I may have
overlooked?
Thanks,
Kelvie
