Subject: [iptables PATCH 3/5] man: ebtables-nft.8: Note that --concurrent is a NOP
Date: Wed,  9 Oct 2024 12:50:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241009105037.30114-4-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241009105037.30114-1-phil@nwl.cc>

For obvious reasons, ebtables-nft does not need file-based locking to
prevent concurrency.

Fixes: 1939cbc25e6f5 ("doc: Adjust ebtables man page")
Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>
