Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] nwfilter: add XML attribute to control match target

This patch adds an optional XML attribute to a nwfilter rule to give

<rule action='accept' direction='in' nomatch='true'>
Having inverted boolean flags is a little wierd. Can't this
be written as match=false instead ?
<tcp srcmacaddr='1:2:3:4:5:6'
srcipaddr='10.1.2.3' srcipmask='32'
dscp='33'
srcportstart='20' srcportend='21'
dstportstart='100' dstportend='1111'/>
</rule>

I am also extending the nwfilter schema and add this attribute to a test
case.
I'm not sure I really understand what this is doing. Can you give a
quick example of what the iptables command looks like, with and
without the nomatch attribute set
