Subject: [nftables RFC PATCH]limit netlink message size during delete operation
Date: Thu, 03 Oct 2013 01:12:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380755553.6862.32.camel@tiger2> (raw)

Hello,

When working on the flush issue, I've observed that the deletion message
was containing the whole the rule definition. This seems to be useless
as only table, chain and handle number are used to delete a rule.

The following patchset introduces a new function in libnftables to be
able to only put only these identifiers in the deletion message.

BR,
