[ANNOUNCE] ipset-6.8 released

[Jozsef Kadlecsik]

Hi,

I'm happy to announce ipset-6.8. The new release contains an important fix
of the hash:net,iface type, so if you use that hash type *and* store
overlapping networks with different interfaces in the same set, then 
please upgrade.

Kernel part changes
 - Fix compiler warnings "'hash_ip4_data_next' declared inline after
   being called" (Chris Friesen)
 - hash:net,iface fixed to handle overlapping nets behind different
   interfaces
 - Make possible to hash some part of the data element only.

Userspace changes
 - Update the manpage and document the limits in hash:net,iface.
 - README file corrections from Richard Lucassen

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

Is this in regards to the problem I highlighted a while ago with 
range-matching or is this something different?

No, it's different: the patch simply makes possible to instruct the hash 
function how large part of the data blob to use at hashing, measured in 
sizeof(u32) units.
