| ipset 6.x, 5.x upgrade notices |
| |
| - From ipset 5.0-5.3 to 5.4 or above: |
| |
| Due to the source code reorganization, some macros were moved to |
| the netlink.patch. Therefore when upgrading, you have two choices: |
| |
| a. force the application of the new netlink.patch |
| |
| kernel-source-dir # patch -p1 -f < ipset-curr-dir/netlink.patch |
| |
| b. remove the earlier netlink.patch and apply the new one: |
| |
| kernel-source-dir # patch -p1 -R < ipset-before-5.4-dir/netlink.patch |
| kernel-source-dir # patch -p1 < ipset-curr-dir/netlink.patch |
| |
| You do not need to recompile your kernel. |
| |
| Of course the kernel modules in ipset must be compiled and installed. |
