Hi!
The Netfilter project proudly presents:
nftables 1.1.1
This release contains mostly fixes, listed in no particular order:
- reduce netlink cache dependencies to speed up incremental updates.
- fix UDP packet mangling when checksum field is zero.
- several fixes for nft reset command.
- JSON parser fixes.
- variables are not supported by -o/--optimize.
- allow zero burst in byte ratelimiter.
table netdev filter {
set test123 {
typeof ip saddr
limit rate over 1 mbytes/second
elements = { 1.2.3.4 limit rate over 1 mbytes/second }
}
}
- fix double-free when users call nft_ctx_clear_vars() first, then
nft_ctx_free().
- document that tproxy statement is non-terminal (compared to iptables).
This allows for tproxy+log and tproxy+mark combos, see man nft(8) for details.
- add egress support for 'list hooks'.
# nft list hooks netdev device eth0
family netdev {
hook ingress device eth0 {
0000000000 chain inet ingress in_public [nf_tables]
0000000000 chain netdev ingress in_public [nf_tables]
}
hook egress device eth0 {
0000000000 chain netdev ingress out_public [nf_tables]
}
}
- fix listing inconsistencies in "nft list hooks".
- "nft list hooks netdev" now iterates all interfaces and then list
all of them.
- document "nft list hooks" command, see man nft(8).
... including manpage updates too and tests enhancements.
See changelog for more details (attached to this email).
