From 5f291c2869a08a63dbdc9de3e13ac5f2d5ed8d47 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Leblond Date: Sun, 29 Dec 2013 11:01:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: select NFNETLINK when enabling NF_TABLES In Kconfig, nf_tables depends on NFNETLINK so building nf_tables as a module or inside kernel depends on the state of NFNETLINK inside the kernel config. If someone wants to build nf_tables inside the kernel, it is necessary to also build NFNETLINK inside the kernel. But NFNETLINK can not be set in the menu so it is necessary to toggle other nfnetlink subsystems such as logging and nfacct to see the nf_tables switch. This patch changes the dependency from 'depend' to 'select' inside Kconfig to allow to set the build of nftables as modules or inside kernel independently.
