From f111f780ae1abf4cdc464f24293be90c010a04f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Perevalov Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2014 22:03:18 +0400 Subject: netfilter: nfnetlink_acct: add filter support to nfacct counter list/reset You can use this to skip accounting objects when listing/resetting via NFNL_MSG_ACCT_GET/NFNL_MSG_ACCT_GET_CTRZERO messages with the NLM_F_DUMP netlink flag. The filtering covers the following cases: 1. No filter specified. In this case, the client will get old behaviour, 2. List/reset counter object only: In this case, you have to use NFACCT_F_QUOTA as mask and value 0. 3. List/reset quota objects only: You have to use NFACCT_F_QUOTA_PKTS as mask and value - the same, for byte based quota mask should be NFACCT_F_QUOTA_BYTES and value - the same. If you want to obtain the object with any quota type (ie. NFACCT_F_QUOTA_PKTS|NFACCT_F_QUOTA_BYTES), you need to perform two dump requests, one to obtain NFACCT_F_QUOTA_PKTS objects and another for NFACCT_F_QUOTA_BYTES.
