This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled netfilter: keep conntrack reference until IPsecv6 policy checks are done to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: netfilter-keep-conntrack-reference-until-ipsecv6-pol.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2f998938971d6d57d663818c51a521cf605ac273 Author: Madhu Koriginja <madhu.koriginja@xxxxxxx> Date: Tue Mar 21 21:28:44 2023 +0530 netfilter: keep conntrack reference until IPsecv6 policy checks are done [ Upstream commit b0e214d212030fe497d4d150bb3474e50ad5d093 ] Keep the conntrack reference until policy checks have been performed for IPsec V6 NAT support, just like ipv4. The reference needs to be dropped before a packet is queued to avoid having the conntrack module unloadable.
