Subject: [PATCH nf-next 1/4] netfilter: flowtable: consolidate net_device field in nft_forward_info struct
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 19:49:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723174952.329650-2-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723174952.329650-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

info->indev and info->outdev refer to the same device, a single
info->dev field is sufficient.

While at it, remove unused router parameter from the flowtable path
discovery function.
