[ANNOUNCE] ipset 6.5 released

[Jozsef Kadlecsik]

Hi,

I'm happy to announce ipset 6.5. The list of changes are:

Kernel part changes:
 - Support range for IPv4 at adding/deleting elements for hash:*net* types
 - Set type support with multiple revisions added
 - Fix adding ranges to hash types

Userspace changes:
 - Support range for IPv4 at adding/deleting elements for hash:*net* types
 - Disable type revisions which are not supported both by the kernel and
   ipset
 - Update ipset help text to reflect SCTP and UDPLITE support
 - Ignore -n flag (list just setnames) when sets are to be saved

You can download the source code of ipset from:
        http://ipset.netfilter.org
        ftp://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/ipset/
        git://git.netfilter.org/ipset.git

Best regards,
Jozsef

Forgot one more thing: I was able to compile all ipset 4.5 kernel 
modules into the kernel itself (i.e. all ipset kernel module options set 
to "y" as oppose to "m"). I am, however, not able to do that in ipset 
6.5 - I can only compile them as modules (i.e. I only have two choices 
and that is either "m" to include them as modules, or not compile them 
at all). Is there a reason for this or is this another bug?

The ipset-4.x packages support patching the kernel source tree, and in the 
kernel tree you can select module or static compiling. The ipset-6.x 
packages support only compiling as external modules.
