This is the ipset source tree. Follow these steps to install ipset:
-0. You need the source tree of your kernel (version >= 2.6.16 or 2.4.36.x)
+0. You need the source tree of your kernel (version >= 2.6.16)
and it have to be configured, modules compiled.
-1. Compile ipset and it's kernel modules
+1. Initialize the environment
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>>
+ % ./autogen.sh
- You can specify the maximum number of sets (default 256)
- and/or the hash size for bindings (default 1024) if you want:
+2. Run `./configure` and then compile the ipset binary and the kernel
+ modules.
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> \
- IP_NF_SET_MAX=<<your setsize number>> \
- IP_NF_SET_HASHSIZE=<<your hashsize number>>
+ Configure parameters can be used to to override the default path
+ to the kernel source tree (/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build),
+ the maximum number of sets (256), the default hash sizes (1024)
+ or disable the extra compiler warning flags if your compiler
+ does not support all of them.
- If your compiler does not support all of the extra warning
- flags, you can disable those too:
+ % ./configure
+ % make
+ % make modules
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> \
- IP_NF_SET_MAX=<<your setsize number>> \
- IP_NF_SET_HASHSIZE=<<your hashsize number>> \
- NO_EXTRA_WARN_FLAGS=yes
+3. Install the binary and the modules
-2. Install the binary and the modules
+ # make install
+ # make modules_install
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> install
+ After installing the modules, you can run the testsuite as well:
-3. Cleanup the source tree
+ # make tests
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> clean
+4. Cleanup the source tree
+
+ % make clean
+ % make modules_clean
That's it!
Read the ipset(8) and iptables(8) manpages on how to use ipset
and its match and target from iptables.

-If you want to build a non-modular >= 2.6.16 kernel or has got a 2.4.36.x
-kernel tree, then proceed with the following steps:
-
-1. Compile the ipset binaries
-
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> binaries
-
-2. Install the ipset binaries
-
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> binaries_install
-
-3. Patch your kernel source
-
- # make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-you-built-your-kernel>> patch_kernel
-
-4. Go to the kernel source and run 'make oldconfig', enable the ipset
- functionality and compile, install your kernel.
