Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== nf_tables updates for net-next The following patchset contains the following nf_tables updates, mostly updates from Patrick McHardy, they are: * Add the "inet" table and filter chain type for this new netfilter family: NFPROTO_INET. This special table/chain allows IPv4 and IPv6 rules, this should help to simplify the burden in the administration of dual stack firewalls. This also includes several patches to prepare the infrastructure for this new table and a new meta extension to match the layer 3 and 4 protocol numbers, from Patrick McHardy. * Load both IPv4 and IPv6 conntrack modules in nft_ct if the rule is used in NFPROTO_INET, as we don't certainly know which one would be used, also from Patrick McHardy. * Do not allow to delete a table that contains sets, otherwise these sets become orphan, from Patrick McHardy. * Hold a reference to the corresponding nf_tables family module when creating a table of that family type, to avoid the module deletion when in use, from Patrick McHardy. * Update chain counters before setting the chain policy to ensure that we don't leave the chain in inconsistent state in case of errors (aka. restore chain atomicity). This also fixes a possible leak if it fails to allocate the chain counters if no counters are passed to be restored, from Patrick McHardy. * Don't check for overflows in the table counter if we are just renaming a chain, from Patrick McHardy. * Replay the netlink request after dropping the nfnl lock to load the module that supports provides a chain type, from Patrick. * Fix chain type module references, from Patrick. * Several cleanups, function renames, constification and code refactorizations also from Patrick McHardy. * Add support to set the connmark, this can be used to set it based on the meta mark (similar feature to -j CONNMARK --restore), from Kristian Evensen. * A couple of fixes to the recently added meta/set support and nft_reject, and fix missing chain type unregistration if we fail to register our the family table/filter chain type, from myself. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
