Hi here are a few patches to bring in per-net functionality for several conntrack protocols: DCCP, SCTP, UDPlite. Since these protos could be built as modules I've put per-net operations to module init/exit routines. The change I would like you point the attention is that module static variables being marked as __read_mostly become now as dynamically allocated -- is it acceptable trade off? For protocols being built in (like TCP, UDP, ICMP) for which I made patches too but they are in a bit 'rought' state: in original code there some kind of reference counter to sysctl tables being registered (and they don't have any kind of mb, didn't check if it could be a problem for SMP since they are mostly __init functions) so I need some kind of same functionality to count per-net calls. Will send RFC for these protocols soon. So eventually I would like to hear some kind of feedback on this. Ideas and any kind of comments are highly appreciated.
