+.SH NAME
+ipq_set_verdict \(em issue verdict and optionally modified packet to kernel
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <linux/netfilter.h>
+.br
+.B #include <libipq.h>
+.sp
+.BI "int ipq_set_verdict(const struct ipq_handle *" h ", ipq_id_t " id ", unsigned int " verdict ", size_t " data_len ", unsigned char *" buf ");"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B ipq_set_verdict
+function issues a verdict on a packet previously obtained with
+.BR ipq_read ,
+specifing the intended disposition of the packet, and optionally
+supplying a modified version of the payload data.
+.PP
+The
+.I h
+parameter is a context handle which must previously have been returned
+successfully from a call to
+.BR ipq_create_handle .
+.PP
+The
+.I id
+parameter is the packet identifier obtained via
+.BR ipq_get_packet .
+.PP
+The
+.I verdict
+parameter must be one of:
+.TP
+.B NF_ACCEPT
+Accept the packet and continue traversal within the kernel.
+.br
+.TP
+.B NF_DROP
+Drop the packet.
+.TP
+\fBNF_QUEUE\fP
+Requeue the packet.
+.PP
+\fBNF_STOLEN\fP and \fBNF_REPEAT\fP are kernel-internal constants and should
+not be used from userspace as their exact side effects have not been
+investigated.
+.PP
+The
+.I data_len
+parameter is the length of the data pointed to
+by
+.IR buf ,
+the optional replacement payload data.
+.PP
+If simply setting a verdict without modifying the payload data, use zero
+for
+.I data_len
+and NULL for
+.IR buf .
+.PP
+The application is responsible for recalculating any packet checksums
+when modifying packets.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On failure, \-1 is returned.
+.br
+On success, a non-zero positive value is returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+On error, a descriptive error message will be available
+via the
+.B ipq_errstr
+function.
+.SH BUGS
+None known.
