Whenever the acl reject rule is hit send back an ICMPv4 destination
unreachable packet and do not handle reject rule as drop one

It's nice to finally get this right!  Thank you.

I wonder about the treatment for TCP connections.  A connection attempt
to a TCP port that is not listening ordinarily yields a TCP RST
response.  I do not know whether an ICMP reply is acceptable.  Do you
have any thoughts on that?

I think that this should add an item to NEWS that describes the new
feature.

Thanks,

Ben.

I agree, we need to add tcp feature, I was thinking to send a different patchset adding tcp stuff.
Do you prefer to squash tcp action to this patchset or repin it with your comments?

It's OK with me to do TCP in a different patch set.  It takes extra work
to write code to generate TCP RSTs.  I don't want to delay these patches
by requiring that extra work now.  I would like to see the TCP work
done, however.

For this patch set, do you think it is better to send ICMP for TCP or to
continue treating reject as drop for TCP?

Thanks,

Ben.

ack, I will send a new patchset soon

I guess we can maintain the standard 'drop' action for TCP connections
for the moment
