Hi,

I had investigated to build iptable and iproute with customized patches but gave up, as the work to maintain these packages is huge and it is a long term commitment to me. So I am interested to have these packages to be available in voyage deb repository.

Regards,
Punky

Excellent information. Thank you.

Do you consider delivering voyage kernel patches in the form of openwrt patches? (seperate with related name). That would be much better than the big patch file. When building the voyage kernel the debian way, it would be nice to also build linux-headers deb package. It really helps if you just want to build an external module for the current running kernel.

The next days I'll be building iptables and iproute2 deb packages for voyage-current with support for imq, esfq, ipp2p and layer7. If others are interested, I could upload them. Please let me know.

    Hi,

    All netfilter patches in voyage kernel are originally from
    openwrt.  (see
    
https://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk/target/linux/generic-2.6/patches-2.6.26),
    you may pick those patches you need from there.

        However, i 've just noticed that almost all modules I want
        (imq, layer7, esfq - ipp2p is missing) are already inside
        voyage kernel. What is missing is the support of these modules
        inside iptables and iproute2. Is it possible to know which
        version of each patch (imq, layer7 and esfq) is already
        applied to the voyage kernel? For example, by issuing modinfo
        xt_layer7 I see it is version 2.17.

        Instead of having a large voyage patch file for vanilla
        kernel, it would be nice to have all the patches seperated in
        files acordingly to their use (imq patch seperate, esfq patch
        separate etc etc)

           You need the standard linux kernel sources,
           plus the kernel config file from
              http://www.voyage.hk/download/kernel_config/
           and the kernel patch from
              http://www.voyage.hk/download/kernel_patch/2.6/

           You can also get a .deb of the kernel source, as described at
             http://wiki.voyage.hk/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=voyage_kernel
           after changing the version numbers appropriately.
