Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] nwfilter: report if ip(6)tables rules would not be effective

The patch below reports a warning in the log if the generated

containing a '0'. The warning tells the user what to do. I am
rate-limiting the warning message to appear only every 10 seconds.
ACK; looks like a reasonable way to warn about the issue, leaving the
resolution in the user's hands to either update the kernel state or
rewrite their nwfilter rules to not rely on iptables.
