X-Git-Tag: v3.13-rc1~105^2~186^2~12
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ef1f7df9170dbd875ce198ba84e6ab80f6fc139e;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fkernel-x86-ivi.git

netfilter: nf_tables: expression ops overloading

Split the expression ops into two parts and support overloading of
the runtime expression ops based on the requested function through
a ->select_ops() callback.

This can be used to provide optimized implementations, for instance
for loading small aligned amounts of data from the packet or inlining
frequently used operations into the main evaluation loop.
