2007-07-10[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: reduce masks to a subset of tuplesPatrick McHardy
Since conntrack currently allows to use masks for every bit of both helper and expectation tuples, we can't hash them and have to keep them on two global lists that are searched for every new connection. This patch removes the never used ability to use masks for the destination part of the expectation tuple and completely removes masks from helpers since the only reasonable choice is a full match on l3num, protonum and src.u.all.

2007-07-10[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: use hlists for conntrack hashPatrick McHardy
Convert conntrack hash to hlists to reduce its size and cache footprint. Since the default hashsize to max. entries ratio sucks (1:16), this patch doesn't reduce the amount of memory used for the hash by default, but instead uses a better ratio of 1:8, which results in the same max. entries value. One thing worth noting is early_drop. It really should use LRU, so it now has to iterate over the entire chain to find the last unconfirmed entry. Since chains shouldn't be very long and the entire operation is very rare this shouldn't be a problem. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-07-10[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: introduce extension infrastructureYasuyuki Kozakai
Old space allocator of conntrack had problems about extensibility. - It required slab cache per combination of extensions. - It expected what extensions would be assigned, but it was impossible to expect that completely, then we allocated bigger memory object than really required. - It needed to search helper twice due to lock issue. Now basic informations of a connection are stored in 'struct nf_conn'. And a storage for extension (helper, NAT) is allocated by kmalloc.

2007-03-05[NETFILTER]: conntrack: fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup endless loopsPatrick McHardy
Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling: - unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means we might iterate forever without making forward progress. This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different packet is handled. - taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped. Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

2006-12-02[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: automatic helper assignment for expectationsPatrick McHardy
Some helpers (namely H.323) manually assign further helpers to expected connections. This is not possible with nf_conntrack anymore since we need to know whether a helper is used at allocation time. Handle the helper assignment centrally, which allows to perform the correct allocation and as a nice side effect eliminates the need for the H.323 helper to fiddle with nf_conntrack_lock. Mid term the allocation scheme really needs to be redesigned since we do both the helper and expectation lookup _twice_ for every new connection.
