1184 This option adds a "time" match, which allows you to match based on
1185 the packet arrival time (at the machine which netfilter is running)

1195 tristate '"u32" match support'
1196 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
1197 ---help---
1198 u32 allows you to extract quantities of up to 4 bytes from a packet,
1199 AND them with specified masks, shift them by specified amounts and
1200 test whether the results are in any of a set of specified ranges.
1201 The specification of what to extract is general enough to skip over
1202 headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
1203 lengths.

1205 Details and examples are in the kernel module source.
