Subject: [PATCH v3 nf-next 0/5] netfilter: reduce hook array sizes
Date: Thu,  7 Dec 2017 16:28:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171207152827.24317-1-fw@strlen.de> (raw)

This series further reduces size of the hook arrays by only resevering space
for the hooks that are implemented/supported (e.g., arp only supports 3 different
hook points as it lacks PRE/POST_ROUTING).

Furthermore, add #ifdef guard to not declare arp/bridge/decnet hooks unless
they are needed.

At least Fedora has CONFIG_DECNET=n so this even reduces size for some
distro kernels.

I ran a few randconfig builds last night and it did not catch any
build errors.

See individual patches for changes since v2.

Florian Westphal (5):
      netfilter: add defines for arp/decnet max hooks
      netfilter: reduce hook array sizes to what is needed
      netfilter: don't allocate space for decnet hooks unless needed
      netfilter: don't allocate space for arp/bridge hooks unless needed
      netfilter: reduce NF_MAX_HOOKS define
