If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Florian Westphal [ Upstream commit a9525c7f6219cee9284c0031c5930e8d41384677 ] Add hidden IP(6)_NF_IPTABLES_LEGACY symbol. When any of the "old" builtin tables are enabled the "old" iptables interface will be supported. To disable the old set/getsockopt interface the existing options for the builtin tables need to be turned off: CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=m CONFIG_IP_NF_FILTER is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_MANGLE is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_RAW is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_SECURITY is not set Same for CONFIG_IP6_NF_ variants. This allows to build a kernel that only supports ip(6)tables-nft (iptables-over-nftables api). In the future the _LEGACY symbol will become visible and the select statements will be turned into 'depends on', but for now be on safe side so "make oldconfig" won't break things.
