Florian Westphal says: ==================== net/sched: act_ipt bug fixes v3: prefer skb_header() helper in patch 2. No other changes. I've retained Acks and RvB-Tags of v2. While checking if netfilter could be updated to replace selected instances of NF_DROP with kfree_skb_reason+NF_STOLEN to improve debugging info via drop monitor I found that act_ipt is incompatible with such an approach. Moreover, it lacks multiple sanity checks to avoid certain code paths that make assumptions that the tc layer doesn't meet, such as header sanity checks, availability of skb_dst, skb_nfct() and so on. act_ipt test in the tc selftest still pass with this applied. I think that we should consider removal of this module, while this should take care of all problems, its ipv4 only and I don't think there are any netfilter targets that lack a native tc equivalent, even when ignoring bpf. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230627123813.3036-1-fw@strlen.de Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
