[PATCH] netfilter: nf_tables: add SECMARK support

Christian Göttsche cgzones at googlemail.com
Wed Sep 19 23:14:02 UTC 2018


Add the ability to set the security context of packets within the nf_tables framework.
Add a nft_object for holding security contexts in the kernel and manipulating packets on the wire.
The contexts are kept as strings and are evaluated to security identifiers at runtime (packet arrival),
so that the nft_objects do not need to be refreshed after security changes.
The maximum security context length is set to 256.

Based on v4.18.6
