* header: fix broken headers for user spaceChangli Gao2010-08-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | __packed is only defined in kernel space, so we should use __attribute__((packed)) for the code shared between kernel and user space. Two __attribute() annotations are replaced with __attribute__() too. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementationLuciano Coelho2010-06-151-0/+45
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time. Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label> When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).
