Description Tomas Dolezal 2016-04-08 09:10:52 EDT
Description of problem:
based on discussion from
bug 1136801 comment 11 and
bug 1136801 comment 15

There came an idea to have possibility to include the only icmp types in icmp-blocks field instead of excluding them.

To have it as follows:
* 'icmp-blocks' becomes 'icmp-filter' - it should be backwards compatible with (possibly hidden) 'icmp-blocks' setting
* default behaviour stays the same
* rough description: the whole field can be negated (could use a '!'); from --list-all or --zone-info it's apparent what behaviour is currently set.
* behaviour is not dependent on 'default-target' of a zone (would be anti-UX) (this was in original idea)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firewalld-0.3.9-14.el7

Additional info:
In el7 icmp-blocks are added one at a time, this might pose a problem with field's functional inversion
