> This patch adds a new rule action FR_ACT_GOTO which allows > to skip a set of rules by jumping to another rule. The rule > to jump to is specified via the FRA_GOTO attribute which > carries a rule preference. > > Referring to a rule which doesn't exists is explicitely allowed. > Such goto rules are marked with the flag FIB_RULE_UNRESOLVED > and will act like a rule with a non-matching selector. The rule > will become functional as soon as its target is present. > > The goto action enables performance optimizations by reducing > the average number of rules that have to be passed per lookup. > > Example: > 0: from all lookup local > 40: not from all to 192.168.23.128 goto 32766 > 41: from all fwmark 0xa blackhole > 42: from all fwmark 0xff blackhole > 32766: from all lookup main > > Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This looks excellent, applied to net-2.6.22, thanks Thomas. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
