The netfilter.org "libnetfilter_queue" project
What is libnetfilter_queue ?
libnetfilter_queue is a userspace
library providing an API to packets that have been queued by the kernel
packet filter. It is is part of a system that deprecates the old ip_queue / libipq mechanism.
libnetfilter_queue has been previously known as libnfnetlink_queue .
libnetfilter_queue requires libnfnetlink and a kernel that includes the nfnetlink_queue subsystem (i.e. 2.6.14 or later).
- receiving queued packets from the kernel
nfnetlink_queue subsystem - issuing verdicts and/or reinjecting altered packets to the kernel
nfnetlink_queue subsystem
You can check the library documentation generated in doxygen format.
libnetfilter_queue has been written by Harald Welte.
