Subject: [PATCH nft 4/5] libnftables: use nft_eval_run_cmds() in nft_run_cmd_from_filename()
Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2026 13:59:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408115922.48676-5-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260408115922.48676-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
Update nft_run_cmd_from_filename() to use this new helper function.
Move err: tag to a later stage, which is run by the variables defined
via --define option, this should be safe.
No functional changes are intended, this comes in preparation to
support several list/reset commands in a batch.
