From ff4ca8273eafbba875a86d333e059e78f292107f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pablo Neira Ayuso Date: Tue, 7 Aug 2007 18:11:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NETFILTER]: ctnetlink: return EEXIST instead of EINVAL for existing nat'ed conntracks ctnetlink must return EEXIST for existing nat'ed conntracks instead of EINVAL. Only return EINVAL if we try to update a conntrack with NAT handlings (that is not allowed).
