xt_TEE.c needs nf_dup_ipv6.c to support ipv6 packet duplication.
So that if xt_TEE is enabled, nf_dup_ipv6 will be automatically selected.
But there is build failure scenario.

test config:
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_TEE=y
CONFIG_NF_DUP_IPV6=m

compile result:
net/netfilter/xt_TEE.o: In function `tee_tg6':
net/netfilter/xt_TEE.c:57: undefined reference to `nf_dup_ipv6'

This patch forces to avoid above config.

Fixes: 5d400a4933e8 ("netfilter: Kconfig: Change select IPv6 dependencies")

Hi,
This does fix the build error, so
Acked-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>

The patch causes this:
  CONFIG_NF_DUP_IPV6=m
to become this:
  CONFIG_NF_DUP_IPV6=y

I understand how the above change fixes the build error, but I don't
see how the change to the Kconfig below file causes the resulting
.config file change above.

Do you?  Can you explain it?  Thanks.

Hi!
Thank you for review!

My understanding is that:
   1. select NF_DUP_IPV6 if IP6_NF_IPTABLES
   2. select NF_DUP_IPV6 if IP6_NF_IPTABLES != n

First statement means that
NF_DUP_IPV6 can't be lower than IP6_NF_IPTABLES.
for example,
If NF_DUP_IPV6 is 'm', NF_DUP_IPV6 can be 'm' or 'y'.
If NF_DUP_IPV6 is 'y', NF_DUP_IPV6 can be only 'y'

Second statement means that
NF_DUP_IPV6 will be set the same value of NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_TEE
if IP6_NF_IPTABLES value is not 'n'.

My understanding might be wrong. If so, please let me know!

Thanks!

Hi Pablo,

According to Masahiro Yamada, this is Kconfig bug and he is fixing Kconfig.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/26/291

So that I think this patch will be useless.
Could you check it up?

Thanks!

OK, will keep back your patch by now, if this fix for Kbuild is still
not fixing up the problem, then robots will spot this again.

Thanks!
