OK, I'll keep the patches in a internal queue and I'll resend them once
you announce your nf-next tree in the ML.

BTW, should I re-send even those that didn't not hit 2.6.28 but you said
that were applied, I mean, for example:

http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=122355881514337&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=122355885514404&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=122364391728099&w=2

I don't mind about doing so.

Yes, those were the ones that are my fault :)

Sorry about that, I know its partially my fault.

Never mind, shit happens, I'm fine with having these into 2.6.29. That
will give me more time to synchronize a conntrack-tools 1.0 and a
ctnetlink 1.0 release.

BTW, I still have to send three patches to -stable, I'm going to do that
now, but what tree should I use to diff the changes? The patch should go
into 2.6.24, .25, and .26.

I don't think all of those are still maintained, probably just
2.6.26. The stable trees are on git.kernel.org:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git		
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.25.y.git		
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.26.y.git		

and you should diff against the tree(s) you want the patch applied to.

I've tried applying this without the others, and it applies and
compiled cleanly with one minor reject:

--- a/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c
+++ b/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c
@@ -445,7 +445,7 @@ static inline size_t
calculate_helper_room_size(const struct nf_conn *ct)

     const struct nf_conn_help *help = nfct_help(ct);
     struct nf_conntrack_helper *helper;
-    size_t size;
+    size_t size = 0;
if (!help)
         goto out;
This chunk doesn't apply, but it doesn't seem to belong in the patch
anyway.

Sorry, this belongs to patch 5/6.

Do you want me to apply the patch as attached to this email, or would
you prefer to rediff it?

No, I'll send you a new patchset once you set your tree. This patch also
needs to include the nfnl_lock/nfnl_unlock logic.

OK. This one would be suitable for 2.6.28 though.
