[nf_tables PATCH v2 0/5] Series short description

[nf_tables PATCH v2 0/5] Series short description

[Arturo Borrero Gonzalez]

The following series implements some changes to the NFT_MSG_DELTABLE
API call.
The main change is the ability to flush the entire ruleset (also per AF).
We are no longer returning EBUSY.

This way, clients of the API can wipe the ruleset and add a new one in just
one transaction/batch.

In the first patches, there are a lot of code factorization and renaming.
The last patch is the change to NFT_MSG_DELTABLE itself.

Changes in this v2 are:
 * rebase on top of git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nftables.git
 * address comments by Pablo. Now, support AF_UNSPEC and specified table.

Comments are welcome.

[nf_tables PATCH v2 1/5] netfilter: nf_tables: refactor rule deletion helper

[Arturo Borrero Gonzalez]

This helper function always schedule the rule to be removed in the following
transaction.
In follow-up patches, it is interesting to handle separately the logic of rule
activation/disactivation from the transaction mechanism.

So, this patch simply splits the original nf_tables_delrule_one() in two
functions, allowing further control.

While at it, for the sake of homigeneize the function naming scheme, let's
rename nf_tables_delrule_one() to nft_delrule().

[nf_tables PATCH v2 2/5] netfilter: nf_tables: add helper to unregister chain hooks

[Arturo Borrero Gonzalez]

This patch adds a helper function to unregister chain hooks in the chain
deletion path. Basically, a code factorization.

The new function is useful in follow-up patches.

[Arturo Borrero Gonzalez]

This patch refactor the code to schedule objects deletion.

They are useful in follow-up patches.

In order to be able to use these new helper functions in all the code,
they are placed in the top of the file, with all the dependant functions
and symbols.

[nf_tables PATCH v2 5/5] netfilter: nf_tables: extend NFT_MSG_DELTABLE to support flushing the ruleset

[Arturo Borrero Gonzalez]

This patch extend the NFT_MSG_DELTABLE call to support flushing the entire
ruleset.

The options now are:
 * No family speficied, no table specified: flush all the ruleset.
 * Family specified, no table specified: flush all tables in the AF.
 * Family specified, table specified: flush the given table.

Signed-off-by: Arturo Borrero Gonzalez <arturo.borrero.glez@gmail.com>

v2: address comments by Pablo:
    * don't return EINVAL if called with AF_UNSPEC and a concrete table.
    * A more generic function, nft_flush()

Without any further review so far, this grammatical error has disturbed me for
a while now :) Please don't spread it further, its called deactivate.
