Currently not, the conntrack association is done at a later point.
We could add a classifier or TC action that performs the lookup
during ingress classification.
BTW, some time ago I started to wonder how safe are those various
ingress activities wrt. invalid packets, dropped later in ip_rcv().
Leaving aside the ipt action, I'm not aware of any problems caused
by ingress classification. Could you be more specific?
There is nothing specific yet. I hope these other classifiers and
actions aren't mislead too much to go astray.
Generally, there shouldn't be any problems specific to ingress since
the classifiers have to expect all kinds of invalid packets on egress
as well.
