3 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: flowtable infrastructure depends on
4 NETFILTER_INGRESS
5
6 config NF_FLOW_TABLE depends on NETFILTER_INGRESS. If users forget to
7 enable this toggle, flowtable registration fails with EOPNOTSUPP.
8
9 Moreover, turn 'select NF_FLOW_TABLE' in every flowtable family flavour
10 into dependency instead, otherwise this new dependency on
11 NETFILTER_INGRESS causes a warning. This also allows us to remove the
12 explicit dependency between family flowtables <-> NF_TABLES and
13 NF_CONNTRACK, given they depend on the NF_FLOW_TABLE core that already
14 expresses the general dependencies for this new infrastructure.
15
16 Moreover, NF_FLOW_TABLE_INET depends on NF_FLOW_TABLE_IPV4 and
17 NF_FLOWTABLE_IPV6, which already depends on NF_FLOW_TABLE. So we can get
18 rid of direct dependency with NF_FLOW_TABLE.
19
20 In general, let's avoid 'select', it just makes things more complicated.
