From b9f78f9fca626875af8adc0f7366a38b8e625a0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pablo Neira Ayuso Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 13:56:08 -0800 Subject: [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: support for layer 3 protocol load on demand x_tables matches and targets that require nf_conntrack_ipv[4|6] to work don't have enough information to load on demand these modules. This patch introduces the following changes to solve this issue: o nf_ct_l3proto_try_module_get: try to load the layer 3 connection tracker module and increases the refcount. o nf_ct_l3proto_module put: drop the refcount of the module.
