OpenVPN shipped a small packet filtering tool called PF. It has never been straightforward as it required a plugin to work. On top of that, keeping PF support, makes the code more complicated and increases the maintenance cost of OpenVPN. PF itself is not actually maintained at all and there is little motivation in keeping it alive. Some years ago an IPv6 extension for PF was proposed, but it was never picked up for the reasons above. External (and more appropriate) tools can still be used to implement packet filtering on the OpenVPN interface. Drop PF support for good. Note that IDs used for external communication (i.e. to the plugin or management interface) have been commented out, but not removed, as they should not be used in the future. v2: * changed // to /* */ * changed "NOT IMPLEMENTED" to "REMOVED FEATURE" * removed extra empty lines after removing ifdef blocks * clarified on IRC that tls_final has to be removed and therefore that hunk is correct * removed mi_prefix() function as it is now unused Cc: Arne Schwabe <arne@rfc2549.org> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <a@unstable.cc> Acked-by: Arne Schwabe <arne@rfc2549.org> Message-Id: <20210827190014.12640-1-a@unstable.cc> URL: https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg22780.html Signed-off-by: Gert Doering <gert@greenie.muc.de> |
