Subject: [PATCH nft,v2] doc: remove references to timeout in reset command
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2023 17:16:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231010151615.56391-1-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)

After Linux kernel's patch ("netfilter: nf_tables: do not refresh
timeout when resetting element") timers are not reset anymore, update
documentation to keep this in sync.

Fixes: 83e0f4402fb7 ("Implement 'reset {set,map,element}' commands")
Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

v2: remove limit by now since kernel does not support it.
