Subject: [PATCH v6 16/18] pesto, conf: Send updated rules from pesto back to passt/pasta
Date: Sun,  3 May 2026 23:55:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260503215601.823029-17-sbrivio@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260503215601.823029-1-sbrivio@redhat.com>

From: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

Extend pesto to send the updated rule configuration back to passt/pasta.
Extend passt/pasta to read the new configuration and store the new rules in
a "pending" table.   We don't yet attempt to activate them.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
[dwg: Based on an early draft from Stefano]
[sbrivio: Add redundant check on interface names being terminated in
 conf_recv_rules(), to make static checkers happy]
[sbrivio: Make conf_recv_rules() return -1 if fwd_rule_read() fails,
 as suggested by Jon Maloy]
