Hi,
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next:
1) Reduce jumpstack footprint: Stash chain in last rule marker in blob for
tracing. Remove last rule and chain from jumpstack. From Florian Westphal.
2) nf_tables validates all tables before committing the new rules.
Unfortunately, this has two drawbacks:
- Since addition of the transaction mutex pernet state gets written to
outside of the locked section from the cleanup callback, this is
wrong so do this cleanup directly after table has passed all checks.
- Revalidate tables that saw no changes. This can be avoided by
keeping the validation state per table, not per netns.
From Florian Westphal.
3) Get rid of a few redundant pointers in the traceinfo structure.
The three removed pointers are used in the expression evaluation loop,
so gcc keeps them in registers. Passing them to the (inlined) helpers
thus doesn't increase nft_do_chain text size, while stack is reduced
by another 24 bytes on 64bit arches. From Florian Westphal.
4) IPVS cleanups in several ways without implementing any functional
changes, aside from removing some debugging output:
- Update width of source for ip_vs_sync_conn_options
The operation is safe, use an annotation to describe it properly.
- Consistently use array_size() in ip_vs_conn_init()
It seems better to use helpers consistently.
- Remove {Enter,Leave}Function. These seem to be well past their
use-by date.
- Correct spelling in comments.
From Simon Horman.
5) Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and
netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev
basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device.
