[PATCH 2.6.20-rc5] netfilter: xt_state compile failure

From: Mikael Pettersson
Date: Mon Jan 15 2007 - 03:03:50 EST


This config:

CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED=m
# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_SUPPORT is not set
CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATE=m

causes this compilation failure:

A simple fix is to have nf_conntrack_compat.h #include <linux/socket.h>.
