This patch allows userspace to specify the generation ID that has been used to build an incremental batch update. If userspace specifies the generation ID in the batch message as attribute, then nfnetlink compares it to the current generation ID so you make sure that you work against the right baseline. Otherwise, bail out with ERESTART so userspace knows that its changeset is stale and needs to respin. Userspace can do this transparently at the cost of taking slightly more time to refresh caches and rework the changeset. This check is optional, if there is no NFNL_BATCH_GENID attribute in the batch begin message, then no check is performed. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> |

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
