Subject: [iptables PATCH] xtables-translate: Fix for interface name corner-cases
Date: Thu, 6 Feb 2020 15:46:25 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200206144625.27616-1-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
There are two special situations xlate_ifname() didn't cover for:
* Interface name being '*': This went unchanged, creating a command nft
wouldn't accept. Instead translate into '\*' which doesn't change
semantics.
* Interface name being '+': Can't translate into nft wildcard character
as nft doesn't accept asterisk-only interface names. Instead decide
what to do based on 'invert' value: Skip match creation if false,
match against an invalid interface name if true.
Also add a test to make sure future changes to this behaviour are
noticed.
