Subject: [PATCH nf] netfilter: nf_tables: allow to change chain policy without hook if it exists
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 13:45:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426596341-3533-1-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
If there's an existing base chain, we have to allow changing the default
policy without indicating the hook information.
However, if the chain exists, we have to enforce the presence of the
hook attribute.
Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This allows this syntax:
nft add chain filter input { policy drop\; }
for an existing input base chain.
