IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE setsockopt
From Softpedia [2]:
> According to the appended shortlog and the diff from the previous
> maintenance update, Linux kernel 4.4.14 LTS adds multiple changes to
> the SPARC support, along with various small fixes for other hardware
> architectures, including s390, ARM64 (AArch64), PowerPC (PPC), MIPS,
> ARM, and x86. Moreover, the networking stack has received various
> improvements to the IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, as well as things like
> L2TP, Netfilter, Netlink, Open vSwitch, TIPC, Wireless, and switchdev.
>
> KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) full virtualization solution for
> Linux and Intel HDA sound support have been improved as well in Linux
> kernel 4.4.14 LTS, along with a few updated drivers, in particular
> networking ones (Ethernet, TUN, VXLAN, etc.), but also general-purpose
> input/output (GPIO), crypto, PINCTRL, and SCSI drivers. All users of a
> GNU/Linux operating system powered by a kernel from the Linux 4.4 LTS
> series are urged to update to Linux kernel 4.4.14 LTS as soon as
> possible.
Also, select `RTC_DRV_CMOS` and `CONFIG_HPET`.
The first option is needed, to get `/dev/rtc0`.
