Subject: Re: [PATCH nf-next 0/4] netfilter: bridge: remove broute hook

From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2019 16:36:38 +0200

> This series removes the 'broute' hook by promoting ebtables' broute table
> to a normal ebtables table (invoked via normal PREROUTING netfilter hook).
> 
> The downside is that nf_hook_slow() needs to be duplicated in br_input.c
> (see patch 3).
> 
> However, I think its worth the price as this allows to remove the
> br_should_route_hook.
> 
> There are quite some changes in bridge specific code, if you prefer
> I can re-submit this for net-next instead of nf-next.
> 
> Main motivation is to provide 'ebtables -t broute' functionality via
> nftables later on, this can then be done without touching the bridge
> or netfilter core infrastructure again.
