There is a pull request in the LKL repo adding firewall support: lkl/linux#431 It simply enables the appropriate options in the kernel config, since the framework is already there. It has not been merged yet, because enabling these options by default would lead to bigger lkl binaries and an overall slowdown for all users. However, since we can provide an opt-in variant with Firewall support, there is no reason not to do it. This is very useful for nftables rule checking without having access to the kernel interface.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think this is a useful addition. Can you also link in this PR to an example on how to use this feature to check nftable rules?
