  • Support arbitrary linux socket filter (BPF) programs as x_tables
    match rules. This allows for very expressive filters, and on
    platforms with BPF JIT appears competitive with traditional
    hardcoded iptables rules using the u32 match.

    The size of the filter has been artificially limited to 64
    instructions maximum to avoid bloating the size of each rule
    using this new match.
