Florian Westphal 8e0538d8ee netfilter: conntrack: skip confirmation and nat hooks in postrouting for vrf
The VRF driver invokes netfilter for output+postrouting hooks so that users
can create rules that check for 'oif $vrf' rather than lower device name.

Afterwards, ip stack calls those hooks again.

This is a problem when conntrack is used with IP masquerading.
masquerading has an internal check that re-validates the output
interface to account for route changes.

This check will trigger in the vrf case.

If the -j MASQUERADE rule matched on the first iteration, then round 2
finds state->out->ifindex != nat->masq_index: the latter is the vrf
index, but out->ifindex is the lower device.

The packet gets dropped and the conntrack entry is invalidated.

This change makes conntrack postrouting skip the nat hooks.
Also skip confirmation.  This allows the second round
(postrouting invocation from ipv4/ipv6) to create nat bindings.

This also prevents the second round from seeing packets that had their
source address changed by the nat hook.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
