Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
![]() Drop nft_set_type's ability to act as a container of multiple backend
implementations it chooses from. Instead consolidate the whole selection
logic in nft_select_set_ops() and the actual backend provided estimate()
callback.
This turns nf_tables_set_types into a list containing all available
backends which is traversed when selecting one matching userspace
requested criteria.
Also, this change allows to embed nft_set_ops structure into
nft_set_type and pull flags field into the latter as it's only used
during selection phase.
A crucial part of this change is to make sure the new layout respects
hash backend constraints formerly enforced by nft_hash_select_ops()
function: This is achieved by introduction of a specific estimate()
callback for nft_hash_fast_ops which returns false for key lengths != 4.
In turn, nft_hash_estimate() is changed to return false for key lengths
== 4 so it won't be chosen by accident. Also, both callbacks must return
false for unbounded sets as their size estimate depends on a known
maximum element count.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
