Subject: [PATCH 3/3] SELinux: return -ECONNREFUSED from ip_postroute to signal fatal error
Date: Tue, 16 Nov 2010 16:52:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101116215257.6727.12163.stgit@paris.rdu.redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101116215238.6727.39248.stgit@paris.rdu.redhat.com>

The SELinux netfilter hooks just return NF_DROP if they drop a packet.  We
want to signal that a drop in this hook is a permanant fatal error and is not
transient.  If we do this the error will be passed back up the stack in some
places and applications will get a faster interaction that something went
wrong.
