You mention nftables below. It's quite possible the kernel provided by

the cloud provider is too old to support the nftables backend. You need

at least 4.18.

The kernel version of the cloud provided is 4.9.130. I don't find a lot of distribution which already ship a 4.18 kernel. According to wikipedia, kernel version 3.13 is the first to support nftables subsystem. Did you mean 3.18?

- security tables optional;

This should already be the case. On startup firewalld probes for the

available tables. If firewalld is not handling the absence gracefully

then it's is a bug and should be reported upstream. You can reopen #411.

I can confirm, without security tables, firewalld refuses to start.

I posted a message into #411, but I cannot reopen.

- support kernel with builtin network modules ?

It should be possible to handle this as well. File a separate issue for

it.

Done. Issue #430 is open.
