From 9b21f6a90924dfe8e5e686c314ddb441fb06501e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 06:30:46 +0000 Subject: netfilter: ctnetlink: allow userspace to modify labels Add the ability to set/clear labels assigned to a conntrack via ctnetlink. To allow userspace to only alter specific bits, Pablo suggested to add a new CTA_LABELS_MASK attribute: The new set of active labels is then determined via active = (active & ~mask) ^ changeset i.e., the mask selects those bits in the existing set that should be changed. This follows the same method already used by MARK and CONNMARK targets. Omitting CTA_LABELS_MASK is the same as setting all bits in CTA_LABELS_MASK to 1: The existing set is replaced by the one from userspace.
