Enhance validation to support for reject from inet ingress chains. Note that, reject from inet ingress and netdev ingress differ. Reject packets from inet ingress are sent through ip_local_out() since inet reject emulates the IP layer receive path. So the reject packet follows to classic IP output and postrouting paths. The reject action from netdev ingress assumes the packet not yet entered the IP layer, so the reject packet is sent through dev_queue_xmit(). Therefore, reject packets from netdev ingress do not follow the classic IP output and postrouting paths. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
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.
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.
