Hi, This is a new round of the patchset to add the flow offload infrastructure [1][2]. This round comes with IPv6 and mixed IPv4/IPv6 support, hardware offload support in a separated nf_flow_table_hw module, port translation, net namespace support and several bugfixes. Patch 7/7 has been tagged as RFC, I will keep this one back until there's an initial driver that introduces flow table offload support, likely in a branch in nf-next.git once this new infrastructure gets merged upstream. Comments welcome, thanks.
