Netfilter has multiple log modules: nf_log_arp nf_log_bridge nf_log_ipv4 nf_log_ipv6 nf_log_netdev nfnetlink_log nf_log_common With the exception of nfnetlink_log (packet is sent to userspace for dissection/logging), all of them log to the kernel ringbuffer. This is the first part of a series to merge all modules except nfnetlink_log into a single module: nf_log_syslog. This allows to reduce code. After the series, only two log modules remain: nfnetlink_log and nf_log_syslog. The latter provides the same functionality as the old per-af log modules. This renames nf_log_ipv4 to nf_log_syslog.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
